Mundane Letter Writing Tasks:
Azliana Mohd Azlan observed that her team spent significant time manually drafting debt reminder letters for debtors. This repetitive task consumed valuable resources that could be allocated elsewhere.
Outdated Accounting System:
The existing accounting system used at UTM did not support automated document generation or templating features, leaving Azliana to seek alternative solutions.
Scattered Teams:
With finance staff working across various departments, Azliana identified the need for a centralized solution to ensure consistency in letter formatting and efficient document tracking.
To address these issues, Azliana Mohd Azlan introduced Fillable Document into her workflow. Here’s how she utilized the tool:

Significant Time Savings:
According to Azliana Mohd Azlan, using Fillable Document drastically reduced the time spent on repetitive tasks, enabling the team to focus on higher-priority work.
