What’s more, staff do not waste time or money on duplicating or distributing documents. Digitising avoids all these unnecessary steps and gives your staff more time to concentrate on the essentials.

In todays fast changing and complex business environment paperwork can restrict your ability to operate efficiently. Needless filing and searching costs business’ valuable time and money. FileDirector means documents are stored, distributed and located faster. FileDirector removes the burden of paperwork and frees staff to focus on essential work.
A further reason for investing in a FileDirector document management system is compliance with statutory requirements, since we help your organisation to minimise the financial or legal risks which can be caused by lost, damaged or improperly used information.
With the increase of paper in our day to day working lives and the mounting constraints and costs of storage space, many businesses choose to pay for offsite storage. Costs upwards of tens of thousands of pounds per year for this kind of inflexible, poorly secure storage solution are not uncommon. FileDirector will take away the burden of spiralling storage costs and in some cases create a return on investment (ROI) in less than a year.
Document Security:
FileDirector also provides benefits such as better security control and new options for monitoring use of documents. You decide at all times who can have access to which documents as well as what changes your employees make to documents. Revisions of documents are stored in FileDirector for quality management and to allow you to see what changes have been made and who made them. Then there is also the improvement in customer satisfaction, as a result of fast response times.
FileDirector is compliant with statutory requirements, since we help your organisation to minimise the financial or legal risks which can be caused by lost, damaged or improperly used information. Thanks to FileDirector, complying with the data protection requirements on retention periods and destruction of documents becomes much easier.
FileDirector also helps to make you GDPR compliant. It’s inbuilt retention control not only allows for the destruction of documents based on pre-defined conditions, but also generates reports as proof of the process, a key component to GDPR compliancy.
Right at home with all your business software:
Stand-alone solutions don’t bring about increases in productivity. That’s why FileDirector integrates with Outstanding ease into your existing applications landscape. No matter what the applications you use – we are sure to have the right link for those applications.
Office integration FileDirector integrates seamlessly into Microsoft office products such as Word, Excel or Outlook. At the same time, the software also integrates with Windows Explorer, so that all commonly used Windows functions can interact with FileDirector.
FileDirector Cabinets:
FileDirector stores documents in Cabinets. These virtual Cabinets are able to store any document format. There are no limitations set by FileDirector on the size or number of documents stored. Normally a company would set up one Cabinet to store their documents. These documents are held in different Document Types. It is possible to search for documents in a Cabinet over all Document Types stored.
Document Types:
In order to file and classify documents they are stored in different Document Types. In a typical office situation this could for example be Quotes, Orders and Invoices.
A Document Type is mainly defined by the index fields used to classify the documents. These fields are selected from the pool of index fields which have been specified previous and should contain each index field used to classify all possible documents. FileDirector manages over 250 document formats, including MS Office, JPG and BMP.
Using FileDirector’s Office Integration, MS Office documents and emails can be stored to FileDirector in their original format directly from the applications. Other documents can be created by scanning paper documents or importing existing electronic documents or spool data.
Document Workflow:
FileDirector has its own workflow module to allow the automatic processing of documents within your company. Documents like invoices can be automatically picked up by FileDirector through emails or by scanning and can be directed to a specific person or department based on the index fields collected. The invoice could be sent to a specific account manager responsible for a specific company or even could be sent to a senior manager for a manual approval if the value is over a certain amount.
Working alongside office integration, FileDirector has the ability to alert your employees when they have received a document for approval and an option can be set to forward the document on or remind the user if a certain amount of time has passed to prevent documents becoming lost.
