ASYST International SA, the sole South African distributor for Access Accounting Ltd, today announced that a `paperless communication facility`, with e-mail and fax integration, has been launched in the new e-commerce financial package Access Horizons version 4.
Users can now e-mail documents or reports directly from within the Access application. The technology integrates with a range of messaging services including Microsoft Exchange and Outlook. Documents are automatically addressed, and are sent as e-mail attachments in industry standard PDF format. E-mailed documents can then be automatically stored with the Customer or Supplier records, allowing users of Horizons access to the information sent.
At the same time, Access has launched a configurable FAX interface that integrates a range of fax software suppliers including Tobit Software. Again this facility produces documents directly from within Horizons.
"All of these facilities are in addition to the work already completed with XML. These facilities provide Access users with the widest choice of messaging integration available in this market sector," commented Paul Marketos, Managing Director of Asyst International SA.
