Case Study: Associated Grocers streamlines accounts payable with Laserfiche

How Associated Grocers, Inc. Streamlined Accounts Payable with Laserfiche

Associated Grocers, a grocery wholesaler providing services to over 210 independent retailers, faced an inefficient accounts payable process reliant on printing, manually collating, and physically filing documents. To overcome this challenge, the company implemented Laserfiche Avante and Laserfiche Quick Fields to optimize and automate their workflow.

The solution from Laserfiche involved capturing invoices and receiving documents electronically, then using automated processes to separate, index, and store them. A workflow was created to evenly distribute payments among clerks for review, and digital shortcuts ensured original documents were never misplaced. The measurable results for Associated Grocers included saving 20 cases of paper annually, freeing up physical office space, making documents immediately available, and creating a more efficient process that saved staff significant time.
