Output management is the efficient handling and exchange of business documents between companies, such as quotes, order confirmations and invoices.

Output Management, also known as document management, automates the management of business documents, enabling you to efficiently organize, format and distribute data from multiple sources, applications and systems such as ERP and CRM in a cost-effective way.

The benefits of investing in output management software are that it:

• Enables you to meet your customers’ content, format and distribution channel requirements
• Easily customize business documents and automate shipments
• Improves document workflows and omnichannel communication
• Reduce the cost of printing
• saves you money and resources on digitizing your business documents and workflows – easily and simply

An efficient ERP project is achieved by using Tabellae’s processes, project documents and implementation guide. In addition, you must:

1. Allocate the right resources
2. Complete all DDSs and spend the required time on each report (typically 4-6 hours)
3. Ask around the organization about other requirements (typically marketing or operations)
4. Test and get report users to test with real test data

That way you go live on time and on budget – with the correct reporting requirements.

There are many different document requirements and you need to comply with these to do business and avoid fines. For example, you need to be able to:

• insert a special icon on order confirmations to Germany
• use barcodes on production documents to Sweden
• Use a special format for US documents

If you do business internationally, you also need to be able to invoice electronically in certain formats to certain countries – and many countries are implementing e-invoicing in the coming years.

* New document requirements can affect your responsibilities as a trading partner when trading internationally – if you can’t deliver specific formats or requirements, you can’t trade with certain countries.
