Inc, www.filehold.com a developer of advanced document and record management
software has released FileHold’07 with features to enhance document
collaboration, approvals and workflow. These new features allow documents
to be automatically routed through several authors, reviewers and approvers
before being ready for general distribution.
FileHold helps companies reduce paper and stay in regulatory compliance.
The advanced workflow and many other new features of FileHold’07
are ready for shipping immediately.
Ian Booth, product manger for FileHold, commented on these new features
“We have added to the powerful document management features already
existing in FileHold by giving our customers the ability to quickly
create pre-defined workflow templates consisting of document review
and/or approval activities. Each activity can be pre-configured with
task descriptions, due dates and sent to one or many observers, approvers
or reviewers for action. When completing their tasks, reviewers add
comments and have the option of attaching other documents as feedback.
A record of each approval or sign-off is kept for each document version
that has gone through an approval process. This is maintained within
FileHold's log as a record of who has approved or rejected the document.”
Larry Oliver, President of FileHold, stated “Businesses today
want to find ways to reduce the volumes of paper being processed through
their enterprise. FileHold software is specifically designed to help
companies dramatically reduce paper by managing documents in electronic
form through their entire lifecycle. One of the most common uses of
paper is to acquire approvals or obtain comments from several contributors
on documents. Some of these documents are as simple as expense reports
that need to be approved by a supervisor before being processed. More
complex documents such as business proposals or contracts can often
require both contributors and approvers to contribute to the final product.
FileHold “advanced workflow and approval” feature provides
an easy to use but highly structured way to capture these approvals
and comments electronically. Users can have access to these electronic
document and provide approval from anywhere they have access to the
internet; this speeds the approval process and eliminates the need for
any paper based processes.”
