Welcome to the MetaViewer Blog

Founded in 1971, Landscape Structures is a playground design firm based in Minnesota and specializing in designing, manufacturing and installing innovative, creative, accessible and safe playground equipment. With the catchphrase #ShapedByPlay, Landscape Structures has made it their mission to support childhood development with inventive playground equipment. However, in order to deliver the fun stuff, Landscape Structures needed to make sure that their accounts payable processes were efficient, modern and up-to-date. A legacy document management solution and inefficient, manual AP processes were holding them back. Users of Microsoft Dynamics AX, the Landscape Structures team was looking for a solution that would tightly integrate with AX as well as help them:

Summit 2018 may be over, but we're still feeling the energy from the event and all of the great conversations that we had with current customers, partners and attendees.

It's that time of year again! We're packing our bags, shipping our booth, preparing our materials and putting insoles in our shoes as we get ready for the 2018 Dynamics User Group Summit. With only a few days remaining, we can hardly contain our excitement for another round of epic Microsoft Dynamics networking, education and fun.

We are excited to announce the launch of MetaViewer 7, the newest version of our state-of-the-art document management/paperless automation solution, MetaViewer. This new edition also features Touchless Invoice Processing for Microsoft Dynamics AX/365 and GP.

Hurricane Florence is making landfall in the Carolinas and is leaving many without power in its wake. As of today, more than 1.7 million people in the Carolinas and Virginia have been warned to evacuate, and 10 million homes in Georgia and Maryland are under warnings. And with winds up to 90 mph, tornado warnings and pelting rain, the damage is expected to be extensive.

It may feel like we’re already at the pinnacle of technological development, what with artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, but we’re really only at the beginning when it comes to robotic process automation (RPA)!

Today’s workforce is more nomadic than ever. Employees are working from home offices, coffee shops, airplanes and hotels, and it’s because modern technology is allowing them to access information and communicate with their teams from anywhere, anytime.

The idea of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation often evokes a range of feelings, from excitement to fear. For many, automation seems like a distant pipe dream. But many others are already in the middle of converting many of their tasks from manual to automated.

There’s no getting around it, your company’s AP department is vitally important to the success of the organization. Without quick (and accurate) payment processing to vendors and service providers, your organization loses credibility, money and a competitive edge. There is little that organizations dislike more than late or missing payments!

When it comes to adopting automation, all of you AP managers and IT directors are probably jumping and cheering thinking about the benefits that RPA will have on your department. But, if you’re a CEO reading this, you may still be wondering what the benefits are for you and the rest of the C-Suite. After all, an investment this substantial should improve your workday, too, right?
