Case Study: Datel (UK’s largest Sage partner) achieves £36,000+ annual savings and eliminates manual data entry with V1 Limited

Sage's largest UK business partner saves over £36,000 per year and eliminates manual data entry with V1

Datel, the UK’s largest Sage software partner, faced time-consuming manual data entry and high paper, printing and postage costs in its purchase invoice processing. To solve this, Datel implemented V1 Limited’s document management and imaging software — including its OCR-based data capture system and BACS‑iP payments integration — fully integrated with their Sage accounting system.

V1 Limited’s solution scans and archives inbound documents, captures and validates invoice data via OCR, routes approvals electronically and automates payments with BACS‑iP, eliminating manual entry and reducing stationery and postage. Used by twenty authorised staff, the system delivered measurable results: total elimination of manual purchase-invoice data entry and cost savings in excess of £36,000 per year.
