The basics How our scanning of incoming documents service works

If you need to process high volumes of paper quickly – perhaps in a mailroom or document processing centre – you need our scan on receipt service. Our team is set up to make sure all incoming documents are digitised and made available electronically as soon as they arrive. High-speed scanners keep the information flowing, while our rigorous quality control and re-scan procedures mean no time is wasted on illegible or incorrect copies. We’ll sort, log and distribute your files to keep your organisation running smoothly. Once scanned, documents can be stored in a digital archive with metadata and OCR for easy searching.

What is Scan-on-Receipt?

Scan-on-Receipt is a document scanning service where your incoming physical mail or records are digitised as soon as we receive them. Instead of storing the paper, we scan and deliver a secure digital copy directly to you ready to access, share or archive.

How does Scan-on-Receipt differ from Scan-on-Demand?

With Scan-on-Demand, you request specific documents to be scanned from storage. With Scan-on-Receipt, your documents are scanned automatically upon arrival no need to make individual requests.

What types of documents can be scanned on receipt?

We can scan a wide range of materials including invoices, contracts, correspondence, forms and more. If you receive it by post, we can digitise it.

How will I receive the scanned documents?

Scanned files are securely delivered via email or uploaded to your OASIS Bridge portal. You’ll receive them in a standard format such as PDF, unless you’ve requested something different.

How quickly are documents scanned and delivered?

Most items are scanned and sent to you within the same working day we receive them. If you have specific timing needs, we can tailor the service to suit.

Can I use Scan-on-Receipt for multiple locations or departments?

Absolutely. We can receive and scan mail on behalf of different teams, departments or office locations and deliver files to separate recipients, securely and efficiently.
