Why computerize cemetery records management?
• All information regarding all owners, deceased, interment records, next-of-kin, etc. is instantly available to all terminals, in all office locations. No need to refer to paper records or cards in order to respond to inquiries from the public – no need to refer inquiries to other offices. • Copies of all data are easily stored off-site, usually automatically by your own network administration. • Fewer errors are introduced into the system, since handwriting or repeated typing of all new records is eliminated, and old records can be verified as entered. • Data entry is never duplicated – enter information only once, and it is always available and correct. • Easy to find complete information based on partial information. • Reports are produced easily for many different needs – local management, central management, and even for public use.
