One of the solutions is to replace the paper-based form with mobile forms and send a link. This will eventually lead to the digital entry of data and now the paper-based forms are not to be manually entered in the system.

Manual Data entry

The main drawback of paper-based forms is the data gets collected on a higher rate than data is submitted in the system. So, there is a lot of backlog data which is yet to be entered into the system. Which makes the paper-based form system inefficient as compared to digital forms.

Data validation
