Fujitsu fi-7300NX network scanners can be connected through a URL to a server housing Sage Paperless Construction. This allows personnel working remotely to scan documents into predefined Sage Paperless Construction queues and batches as well as folders for the office personnel to then process through Sage Paperless Construction. This ensures timesheets or field purchase orders, for instance, are housed where expected within Sage Paperless Construction.
