GreatAmerica and ECi Announce Usage Billing Integration

 

Enhancement Streamlines Invoicing Process for Office Imaging Dealers

 

(Cedar Rapids, IA) – GreatAmerica

 

Financial Services Corporation and ECi Software Solutions, Inc. announce the completion of an automated process for transmitting invoice data related to usage billing.  This new service connecting GreatAmerica with ECi’s OMD®  and e-automate®  ERP systems eliminates manual work, reduces errors, and provides office imaging dealers with an easier way to transmit critical usage and invoice records.

 

 

“Technology integrations are a high priority at GreatAmerica.  We recognize strong partnerships and highly integrated platforms are more necessary than ever for office equipment dealers to continue to add value and remain relevant in their customers’ worlds,” said Jennie Fisher, Senior VP and General Manager, Office Equipment Group at GreatAmerica. “Collaborating with ECi allows us to help dealers streamline the transmission of their meter and invoice data. Our aim with these enhancements is to save our mutual customers time and increase accuracy.”

 

The newly automated process replaces outmoded meter and invoice data collection.  With this advancement, there is no need to manually type in, fax, or download and upload data files. “The GreatAmerica and ECi integration saves us a significant amount of time. We no longer have the hours invested in entering meter and invoice information,” said Mary Hagen, Controller, South Coast Copy Systems, San Diego, CA. “The process has been smooth—we appreciate the GreatAmerica commitment to easing our administrative burdens, ” Hagen added.

 

“Our partnership with GreatAmerica continues to evolve and expand.  Blending our Equipment Services Network (ESN) capabilities with the GreatAmerica InteGreatTM web services has allowed us to improve dealers’ day-to-day operations—including reducing manual entry for meter readings and customer payment data,” said Laryssa Alexander, President of ECi Software Solutions’ Service Technology Group. “We look forward to more integration points with GreatAmerica to help our mutual customers succeed.”
