GE Capital’s Office Imaging (OI) business announced that it will provide OI dealers who use the e-automate or OMD systems with the ability to automatically submit customers’ meter readings and receive customer payment information with no manual intervention. The goal of the integration is to help OI dealers save time and money.

Both e-automate and OMD are automated business management software systems designed for the OI industry. They are developed by Digital Gateway and OMD Corporation, both part of the ECi Software Solutions family of companies.

“As a result of this integration, we hope to enable faster payment recognition for dealers,” said Glen Clark, vice president and general manager of GE Capital’s OI business. “This new process enables dealers to post cash payments received from GE Capital directly to their operating systems and eliminates most of the current steps needed to process meter files.”

“We applaud GE Capital for enabling dealers to access emerging technologies,” said Laryssa Alexander, president of ECi Software Solutions’ Office Equipment Division. “Our goal is to make processes more efficient and seamless, which means we’re helping dealers and their customers too.”
