We don’t think that anyone who uses three-part forms (a.k.a., triplicate forms) can deny the inherent problems with this method of record keeping…
- Handwritten information on the forms is often illegible, and many times, the person doing the writing doesn’t press down hard enough for the information to get transferred all the way to the third layer of paper.
- There are too many pieces of paper to keep track of. Each part of a three-part form can easily be lost by any of the three parties to which one part of the form is distributed. These forms can also be destroyed by fire and made illegible by chemicals. Furthermore, the “ink” fades with age.
- If generic, off-the-shelf forms are inadequate for your business, you must order custom forms. This can be quite expensive, and you have to rely on the printing company being able to fulfill your order in a timely manner. Sometimes, they get backed up and cannot deliver the goods when you need them.
An excellent alternative to the use of three-part forms for record keeping is mobile receipt printing, which eliminates the above problems.
