The process is even more complicated because accountants often receive these invoices through different means. Some clients send printed documents via courier, others send scans by email, and some even send photos, which are not always the best quality, via Whatsapp.
Moreover, it’s common for clients to send their documents at the very last minute. This usually happens when accountants are already busy with other tasks, particularly during the filing period. Accountants don’t just have to find these documents. They also have to save them in separate folders based on the client and prepare them for entry into the accounting system. These steps make the task of collecting and organizing documents a real headache and can consume a lot of valuable time.

Once uploaded, Entera takes over, recognizing your data, organizing it, and preparing it for seamless entry into Tally. This way, you can drastically cut down on the time you’d normally spend on document management and get back to what truly matters – your core accounting tasks.
Email Forwarding
Email forwarding is one of the easiest ways to utilize Entera. Invoices are frequently sent by clients via email. Instead of printing them out or downloading each one to your PC, you can simply forward these emails to a unique Entera email address ([email protected]).
As soon as you forward the emails, Entera’s automated system kicks into action. The system immediately starts recognizing and processing the data from the invoices. There’s no need for manual input or organization on your part. This feature significantly reduces the time spent on data entry and allows for immediate processing of the data, ensuring a more efficient workflow.
Entera streamlines the entire process using this strategy, allowing you to concentrate more on your core responsibilities and less on administrative tasks. It’s an easy, seamless way to manage a large volume of invoices and import them into Tally.

It’s a hassle-free, efficient method of getting your invoices into Entera and ultimately into Tally, no matter where you are. You won’t need a scanner or your desk to keep up with your invoice management responsibilities in this way.
