The challenge

BEFORE SCANNERPILOT

The client files arrived.
The trail was harder to follow.

The firm managed multiple client inboxes and needed proof of who uploaded, reviewed, approved, synced, or retried each document.

Client inboxesRepeat uploadsApproval history

The opportunity wasn’t to remove review.
It was to remove the retyping before it.

The change

LESS TYPING. THE SAME ACCOUNTING JUDGMENT.

The document stayed the same.
The work around it changed.

Separate client queues kept duplicate signals, sources and decisions connected. Explore the review step with a fictional invoice below.

The results

LESS REPETITION. MORE ATTENTION.

More of the work that
needs a human.

Summit’s reported outcomes describe fewer repeated checks and source context with approved records, while the reviewer keeps the accounting decision.

THE DUPLICATE-REVIEW SHIFT
36%

Fewer duplicate review tasks

Client document queues stayed separated and easier to scan.

Graphic represents the reported percentage, not raw task counts.
THE SOURCE-CONTEXT SHIFT
100%

Approved records with source context

Approval decisions were visible before QuickBooks records were created. Audit history made follow-up conversations faster and more specific.

The reviewer still makes
the accounting decision.
