This time, I will explain the "another preservation deadline" hidden behind the numbers of the Electronic Bookkeeping Act and the "technical lifespan" unique to electronic contracts. ---Content of the article here-------------------------------- ■Differences in preservation periods for tax and legal purposes ■Contract cases that require long-term preservation of over 10 years 　●In the construction and building industry 　●In the manufacturing industry 　●In the case of ongoing long-term contracts ■Risks unique to electronic contracts: "Validity period of electronic signatures" ■Long-term preservation solutions (paperlogic) ■Summary: Building a long-term preservation system to protect corporate rights -------------------------------------------------------- The full text of the article can be accessed from the "Related Links."

This time, we will explain the overview of "e-seals (electronic seals)," which are recommended to be used in conjunction with timestamps, along with examples from Europe and the trends of the Japanese certification system that will be fully launched this year (2026). ---Content of the article-------------------------------- ■ What can and cannot be proven with timestamps "What is an e-seal": An electronic "seal (company stamp)" ■ The role of e-seals in Europe (eIDAS regulation) ■ Launching in 2026: "Japanese version of e-seals" ● Key points of the Japanese e-seal system ● Operations will start around spring 2026 (Reiwa 8) ■ Strong reliability with "timestamp" × "e-seal" ■ Enhancing transaction reliability with the Japanese e-seal -------------------------------------------------------- The full text of the article can be accessed via the "related links."

Is there no time in your daily operations to search for documents, wondering "Where is that document?" You might spend time looking for documents, asking others, or crossing departments... Such time can accumulate to a loss of 20 minutes a day, 1.7 hours a week, and 80 hours a year. The common belief that "storing on paper is the norm" is becoming a significant cost that hinders company growth. By digitizing paper documents (DX), we can create new time, make management decisions based on facts (data), and benefit from AI (artificial intelligence). Why not envision such a future with paperlogic?

This time, I will explain the differences in roles between the "accounting system" and the "document management system," which are surprisingly not well-known, as well as points that are often overlooked in legal compliance. ■ The difference between accounting systems and document management systems is their "scope of coverage." - Accounting System = Management of "money (numbers)" - Document Management System = Management of "evidence (documents)" ■ Documents often overlooked by accounting systems The accounting system primarily focuses on "accounting processing." - "Estimates" where no money movement occurs - "Delivery notes" and "purchase orders," which are intermediate points in transactions ⇒ There are cases where these are not stored or managed within the accounting system. This could be considered a deficiency under the Electronic Bookkeeping Preservation Act. ■ Supplementing the missing parts with an "independent system" While there are high-function ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems that can manage everything from estimates to invoicing seamlessly, the reality is that the cost can be a significant barrier to implementation. Therefore, managing documents with an independent document management system like paperlogic is also an option. Paperlogic is currently offering a free trial. Please feel free to contact us.
