Abstract: A board that hides information in a manner that only certain authorized personnel may change the information and other authorized personnel may view the information. This invention accomplishes the foregoing by placing a locked panel of translucent material over certain information written on the board that may only be changed by an authorized individual by opening the lock. A panel of opaque material is placed over the translucent material in a manner that certain information written on the board will be revealed when authorized personnel remove the opaque material or cause the opaque material to be transparent. The translucent material may be removed by activating a switch or entering a code.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method and system that only destroys documents that a party wants destroyed. The system also maintains a record of destroyed documents and saved documents. The foregoing may be accomplished by: placing information directly on a document that uniquely identifies the document; placing information in a database that uniquely identifies the document in which information was placed, and the date, if any, in which the document is scheduled to be destroyed; scanning the placed information on documents that are going to be destroyed; attempting to destroy the document; and checking in the database to determine whether or not the document should be destroyed, whereby if the database indicates the document should be destroyed, the document is destroyed, and if the database indicates that the document should not be destroyed, the document is not destroyed.

Abstract: A system and method for bridging existing paper-based invoicing methods to electronic methods that is simple to use and cost effective is disclosed. A billing party generates a transaction identification number in the process of preparing an invoice and sends the transaction identification number to the consumer via a physical mail piece or e-mail. The invoice data is stored in a standard format in a secure server along with the transaction identification number. The consumer, upon receipt of the physical mail piece, inputs the transaction identification number to a computer, such as, for example, by scanning, accesses the secure server and sends the transaction identification number to retrieve the invoice data. The invoice data is then automatically entered into the consumer's software systems.
