AutoDoc HSE can be set up to use one print command to create multiple document delivery methods. Install AutoDoc HSE once and use it with just about any software, including accounting software packages ranging from small business accounting to enterprise level accounting with SAP.

How AutoDoc HSE Works

AutoDoc HSE looks like a printer in your software, so it is very easy to use from within accounting software. Click on 'Print' once in your accounting software and depending on how you configured AutoDocHSE you can send or print documents in the following formats:

  • Print on paper
  • Print to fax
  • PDF
  • SMS (text messaging)
  • Email
  • Microsoft Excel or Work
  • Text (.txt)
  • Print to archive

For example, AutoDoc HSE can be configured so that when a batch of monthly statements are printed to the AutoDocHSE printer from within your accounting software, statements are emailed to customers who prefer emailed statements, paper copies are printed out for customers who prefer to receive statements in the mail and back up copies of statements are automatically stored.

Customize Communications

AutoDoc HSE will incorporate company logos or letterheads into what it prints, whether on paper or electronically, and email subject headings can automatically pull data from what is sent to create a subject line like, "Invoice for $500 from My Company to Your Company". User information can also be used in document deliveries, such as email address or phone number.

Free AutoDoc HSE Trial and Pricing

AutoDoc HSE has a free 30-day trial. Four levels of AutoDoc HSE range from a limited one-user license to a 20 user enterprise edition. Pricing starts at nearly $700 for a single user license (when annual maintenance fee is added on), making AutoDoc HSE too expensive for most very small businesses. However, businesses with a large customer base or widespread sales force would save enough time with AutoDoc HSE that the software would pay for itself quickly.

First Look at AutoDoc HSE

I suspect that anyone who downloads and uses the 30-day free trial will become addicted to AutoDoc HSE. AutoDoc HSE allows for multiple pre-configured delivery options, which makes it a flexible and adaptive tool that can really boost productivity for those using accounting or other financial software on a daily basis.

Businesses are operating in an age of transition from paper to digital delivery for numerous types of documents, so being able to produce multiple types of documents in one print job can be a boon to productivity. While AutoDoc HSE is pricey for the home user, it could be cost-effective for active investors or for the self-employed with multiple streams of income.
