Document Routing
Document Routing within an organization has historically been a manual process, routing physical paper files and/or folders. Modern technology has introduced workflow document routing, which can facilitate the not only the routing of documents, but also an approval to one or multiple individuals. Digitally routing documents has a number of benefits and advantages:
- Creation of an audit trail
- Ability to pass and collect data with the routed document
- Version control and rework ability for changes
- Approval and rejection email notification
- Insight into the process
Most Business Process Management (BPM) suites have basic document approval and routing templates available, and they can be deployed quickly into any department or organization.
