"Having an implementation consultant who's experienced with Lawson deployments was helpful. With ImageNow there are no hidden setup costs, so the up-front price is accurate."

Accounts payable

Centura Health uses ImageNow integrated document management, imaging and workflow to efficiently process between 30,000 and 40,000 invoices each month. Before implementing ImageNow, Centura used a courier service to transport documents between sites in Colorado, delaying invoice approval. Centura employees spent hours archiving, searching for, printing and mailing hard copies, diverting them away from important daily tasks.

Using patented LearnMode technology, ImageNow seamlessly integrated with Centura's Lawson Financials suite, as part of a timely deployment that delivered rapid return on investment. Instead of waiting for hard copies to be delivered, or wasting time searching for them, AP associates access documents with a single click from within the familiar Lawson environment. WebNow, the browser-based complement to ImageNow, extends instant document access to authorized users in any location.

ImageNow reduced Centura's invoice approval time from three weeks to three to five days by replacing a slow, manual system with a sophisticated, yet user-friendly, electronic workflow setup. Using an intuitive workflow design tool, Centura managers assigned responsibilities to individuals, as part of the standardization of business procedures. ImageNow reporting functionality enables Centura to monitor the whereabouts of documents throughout their lifecycle, and the elimination of hard copies minimizes the chance of documents being misplaced.
