Print barcode cover pages to automate scanning & indexing View Manual (PDF)

SimpleCoversheet is an easy, affordable solution for creating barcode coversheets to automate scanning and indexing. Coversheets are printed and placed on top of documents before scanning. Once scanned, SimpleIndex (and other applications) can read the barcodes and use that information to index and organize the files automatically.

Coversheets are especially useful for:

  • Network scanners, digital copiers & MFPs
    Anyone can print a barcode coversheet, place it on the document and scan it on a shared network device. The document is processed and filed automatically by SimpleIndex, so users need no scanning software or training.
     
  • Backfile conversions
    Service bureaus and scanning departments documents often need to scan old files that are organized and correspond to data from another application, such as a customer database. SimpleCoversheet can connect to the database and print coversheets for each file. These are placed in front of the files during preparation, eliminating all manual indexing from the process.
     
  • Internal company documents
    Documents that are printed internally can use SimpleCoversheet to add a barcode to a blank space on the page so it can be automatically indexed when it is scanned.
     
  • Company scanning departments
    Coversheets are a great way to ensure that the person who indexes a document is the person that knows the most about how it should be filed. Users simply print a coversheet and place it on the document before it is sent to the scanning department. This puts indexing in the hands of the person that created the document and removes all manual data entry from the scanning process.
     
  • Document separation & quality control
    Create generic coverpages with a fixed barcode that is used to indicate document breaks and automatically group together multi-page files. These can be printed in bulk and used whenever documents are scanned. Handprint field labels can also be added and filled out by scanner operators for quality control purposes. These can collect information like who prepped a document, who scanned it, when it was scanned, batch IDs and other tracking data.
