Texcel, a Houston-based industrial hose and sheet rubber distributor, replaced manual scanning and offsite paper storage with doc-link integrated document management connected to Epicor Prophet 21. The system automatically indexes shipping documents via barcode, links them to ERP transactions, and enables instant retrieval for inside sales and accounting. The company plans to extend the solution to invoice workflow and OCR-based accounts payable processing.
