Supported by optical character recognition technology, this application of document scanning brings the following benefits:
- It greatly simplifies the process of bank transaction importing.
- It allows historical transactions to be uploaded, thereby providing more flexibility.
- Anyone can send documents to SF360 by using a unique email, simplifying the workflow process.
