I am using windows desktop and have not bought a scanner.  I have a brother scanner/printer, but that would be slow. 

I am in the middle of an IRS audit and am seeing that I am missing business deductions because of lack of documentation.  My primary goal for EN is tax related, but I can see that an easy lookup for a purchase (air filter)... EN could make life easier.

Should I be looking at other scanners?  Some claim integration with EN.  Will they work as well as scansnap?

Thanks you both.  I am trying to make sense of several boxes of random business receipts.  I am wondering if a ScanSnap scanner and ocr would help or if I should just go through each box and hand sort.

I am a newbie.  If (today) I scan in a lot of varied receipts from 2 or 3 years, is there any way to search on the actual transaction dates printed on the receipts?  Said another way, could I scan in a few hundred receipts from many months and then search for July 2017 so that I could name those receipt notes with a 201707 name?
