Any idea on how we might go about faxing/emailing remittance advices? This is currently a manual process and involves >100 per week so is quite time consuming!

We currently do this, faxing a whole batch of suppliers at once. We do it by using the Baan remittance advice and then separating each supplier into a separate document which is then merged with overlays and sent to Fenestrae's Faxination product. But any good fax software would be ok, on the opensource front I would suggest Hylafax, but I have no experience with it.

You will probably need to customise the standard Baan remittance report to include the fax number and be in the format of your overlay.

Good luck

We fax various documents from Baan (Purchase Orders, Contracts, Schedules etc) using a similar technique with a package called dbfax from Version One (www.versionone.co.uk).
