Alliance PaperChase Records Management
is barcode driven archive and records management software for managing physical
paper records including file
tracking, storage, retention and retrieval of original documents, files and archive boxes, and with the PaperChase
Imaging option scanned documents may also be stored, retrieved and displayed on screen.
Using barcode or RFID technology, the Alliance PaperChase Records Management
(EDRMS) system is designed to identify and track
physical documents such as client or customer files, patient records, planning
applications, internal documents, forms, drawings,
working papers, incoming mail and archived material.

Alliance PaperChase archive & records management helps records managers and
users:
- register files and documents as 'records' by printing and attaching a
barcode or RFID label
- store records in their appropriate classifications along with the
prescribed metadata
- search for and retrieve records when required
- manage retention schedules
- destroy records according to prescribed schedules
- put holds on records so they don’t get destroyed while the company
goes through an audit or investigation
- track the access of the record over its active and in-active life cycle
|
Each document (or folder of documents) is given a unique barcode label to identify it,
and may be grouped together with other documents to form projects or cases. An item may then be registered at a location simply
by scanning its barcode identification label. RFID (Radio Frequency
Identification) smart labels
may be used instead of barcode labels.
Original documents or files are assigned to a location which could be a
filing cabinet, shelf,
office, person, third-party warehouse, client site, etc., so that it may be found
and retrieved quickly and easily. Individual records, files, or boxes may be
barcoded.
A full movement history of each item is retained so that all movements can be
seen from the creation date onwards, providing a full audit trail for every
item.
Typically all employees could have a view-only version of PaperChase
(allowing enquiries and File ordering) whilst Records Management department
users would have a full version (allowing File creation, movement, boxing,
archiving etc.).
A user may request files or documents to be retrieved (from on-site or third-party storage)
and delivered to the user's
location. With the PaperChase Imaging option scanned images of
documents may be displayed on screen.
Alliance PaperChase is scaleable from small departmental records management
systems (say 10 to 20 users) to enterprise-wide systems with 15,000 or more users.
PaperChase provides storage, archiving, security permissions,
records management and file tracking functionality and mrecord
retention schedules.
PaperChase records management allows the records manager to get a better grip on
the increased volumes of all kinds of records.

Alliance PaperChase can use RFID 'smartlabels' to track Files, Boxes or
Documents. A smartlabel is printed with an RFID printer and affixed to a
File.

Files (or Boxes or Documents) can then be tracked as they go through doorways
using a RFID door reader.
Similarly Files in a zone (say a room or part of a room) can be checked with a
zone reader.
