Many companies use SAP software to manage their documents. In this way, it is possible to create efficient structures even with large amounts of data. However, if it is necessary to archive the files for a long time, some problems may occur. webPDF offers a conversion software that also offers a suitable solution for this area. This makes it possible to store all files according to the PDF/A standard.
Radar and cameras catch German motorists speeding about three million times a year. The Fines & Citations Office of the city of Leverkusen deals with speeding offenses every day. Most of these violations occur on the bridge that crosses the River Rhine along the A1 autobahn. Here the posted speed limit is only 60 km/h, since any faster traffic would cause too much vibration to this decaying bridge, which is generally closed for vehicles weighing more than 3.5 tons. A tremendous bureaucratic effort is required from the time the system records the violation to when offenders receive notification from the Fines & Citations Office. Because converting documents to PDF/A format plays such an important role in this process, the city of Leverkusen is not only using an SAP-based digital case file system, but a tool that enables such conversions to be done fully automatically.
Administrative workflows are being modernized as more and more government agencies start using the e-case file - and PDF/A is playing a decisive role in all of this.
The call for a modernized workplace has finally reached the courts and government agencies. This development is not only due to the people working in such agencies, who see in the latest technologies a means of making their jobs easier and more efficient, but also to various laws designed to promote such improvements.
