This would be a killer app if it would recognize scanned documents based on what it learned. It can learn bank statements, bills and company logo's. It can also grab dates from scanned documents.
With this information it will recognize a scanned document that hits the inbox and automatically add tags.
Example: Verizon, bill, phone, march, 2011
I have to approve or update these before they move to the 'big pile'.

Or offer an API where different document repository providers could be plugged in giving the ability to store the documents on different mediums.

There needs to be away of importing a new version of a document and to be able to write comments for each version to be able to track changes to the document. You also need to be able to pull up and open past versions. Version control is one of the most important features of a document management software. I would definitely buy this software if it had some form of version control.

It would be nice if eDoc provided an online (off site) backup service. This way I wouldn't have to mess with creating multiple backups on different hard drives or network locations.

As an alternative you can also integrate with popular online backup services like DropBox, Carbonite, etc.

Once I setup a filter on the organizer by selecting a few tags I would like any document imported either by dragging and dropping or scanned to automatically be imported with these tags. IE. if I have a tag selected for "Expenses" and "2010" and "May" any document imported by any method automatically gets these tags.

Make an eraser tool to clean-up unwanted dots and marks on documents

The word explains it all

I like QuickBooks. It's an ecellent accounting package. I know that this would be a proprietary feature, but I'm looking for something which would allow me to easily tag entries in QuickBooks with a scanned document - an invoice, for instance.

Option to have a document preview pane window in the main layout for those who for whatever reason don't want this feature..

Example of a current workflow

- Click on Advanced search, because the regular search is nonsense.

- Double click on a result

- Window pops up with document for preview

- Close window

- Look for another file.

With a preview window you can quickly go through your results...

NeatReceipts fills a common need for lots of traveling business people who need to scan receipts and prepare expense reports. There software is really really bad from both a user experience and technical implementation perspective. There's a market opportunity here. I certainly wish I could find a product that could tackle this specific use well.

Currently layout is fixed.

The ability to move/close or adjust sections, add them to tabs etc...

Sections = Filter / File area / Labels

OCR can take some time, depending on the size of the job. Scanning lots of documents could be accelerated if OCR commenced immediately upon completing the scan, rather than waiting on user input to "Save and New" or "Save and Close" etc. If the scan is deleted or repeated by the user, I'm sure the computer won't mind the wasted OCR effort, but workflows will be faster.

The name/ID can be used in other documents to reference eDoc-documents.
Also the ID can be written on the scanned paperdocument with pen to create a link between digital and physical world.

Ability to assign labels to selected documents via hot keys such as F1, F2, F3.

Use document organizer for tax purposes. Would like the ability to enter bill amounts and sales tax.

Ability to setup different scanning profiles (colleciton of scanner settings) for different types of documents.

If a user accidentally deletes a file from eDoc Organizer, there is no way to recover it. At the very least eDoc Organizer should send the file to the computer's recycle bin so that it can be recovered. It would be even great if a recycle bin type feature could be added to eDoc Organizer so that you can recover the labels, comments and other attributes of the file as well.

able to start an edit on a single label group and populate it with a number of text entries without having to do multiple separate edit sessions, requiring the user to identify the label group and adding one text for each session
