Provo, Utah -- March 24, 2010 -- APX Alarm Security Solutions, Inc. (APX) has teamed up with DoxTek to provide solutions for their accounts payable (AP) department.  Persisting problems with the traditional method of handling paper-based documents led APX to consider automating their AP procedures.

“The first one was the filing problem, handling all that paper, filing it in alphabetical order,” said Linda Johnson, AP Manager of APX.  “And when people would need to look at it, they would pull it, and either they would put it back in the wrong place or there was a ton of paperwork to be re-filed.”

In addition to filing these documents, the cost to process an invoice was a major issue for the AP Department of APX.  To address the issue, the company tapped DoxTek for an AP solution that would best fit their business needs and requirements.

Based on a study done by DoxTek, APX spends an average of 840 hours a year on routing and filing of documents, search and retrieval, and data entry. This process causes APX to spend roughly $7,000 a month. With their new AP solution, their time and expenses associated to filing, searching, and retrieving documents will be reduced by 47%.

DoxTek designed the system for APX using Kofax scanning software for document scanning, and PaperVision Enterprise software for electronic routing and search and retrieval. “With the new system everything is routed automatically thus minimizing the time it takes to have invoices approved,” said Cullen Dinkel, Account Executive of DoxTek.

“We received audit requests after the new system was set up,” said Linda. “They asked for a couple of documents that we already had scanned in, so instead of having to find the paper we were able to pull those up from the network and it worked great!” By automating APX’s process of managing documents, the time-consuming and labor-intensive task is now reduced into just a click of a button.
