ALBANY, N.Y. –

Auto/Mate Dealership Systems announced this week a product development that company management says will streamline dealership workflow.

The company has integrated its dealerships management system with etfile’s electronic document management solution.

Now, dealers using the etfile document imagining, filing and retrieval system can now get deals from F&I and repair orders from service, via delivery from Auto/Mate's DMS.

The integration also allows dealers to identify all documents that were not scanned on a given day, the company shared.

"Auto dealers can create hundreds of documents on a daily basis, and if they're using an electronic filing system the ability to retrieve documents out of their DMS in a timely manner is critical to increasing efficiencies," said Mike Esposito, president and chief executive officer of Auto/Mate Dealership Systems.

Highlighting the document tool in more detail, etfile's Enterprise Content Management solutions work to create a “paperless” environment at the dealerships and helps dealers to streamline the management of parts and repair orders, invoices and sales paperwork.

It also gives dealers quick access to information so they can better answer inquiries from partners and customers.

"Partnering with Auto/Mate will allow hundreds of dealerships to take advantage of the benefits associated with our document management system, which include saving thousands of dollars per month in productivity as well as greater accuracy than a human filing papers in drawers," said Mark Linton, president of etfile.
