\"Leveraging<\/p>\n

Most companies will implement a Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software to benefit from automation and consistency within their organization and business processes. There are, however, always more and different ways of improving efficiency beyond just having an ERP system in place. This is where Enterprise Content Management (ECM) comes into play.<\/p>\n

Enterprise Content Management<\/em><\/h3>\n

Generally speaking, ECM is defined as a formalized means of organizing and storing an organization’s documents and other content that relate to the organization’s processes.\u00a0The term encompasses strategies, methods, and tools used throughout the lifecycle of the\u00a0content.<\/p>\n

According to<\/a> Sanjay Kumar, Vice President, Product Management at Epicor Software, ECM software can automate some of your company’s most important business processes. Standard functions that organizations can expect to see within an ECM tool include: document management, searching, scanning, workflow, versioning, record retention\/management, and online forms.<\/p>\n

When these functions are integrated into an ERP solution, they can add even more value. Kumar explains, \u201cLost, misfiled and delayed approvals on documents cost organizations time and money. Remote employees, compliance and security issues add even more layers of complexity to an already-complex system. DocStar ECM can help improve productivity and save costs by creating a paperless workflow to achieve higher efficiency and productivity, better business insights, better cash management, improved collaboration, and a simplified audit process.\u201d<\/p>\n
