Abstract

A unique animated graphical user interface for improving the tracking of documents is described herein. The user interface comprises of symbols that move across a line to represent the status of that document. The line may be separated into quadrants. To facilitate this graphical user interface, a non-transitory machine-readable media is programmed to store invoices in a list in a database and count the number of invoices in each quadrant in the list in the database. The first quadrant may include a representation of the number of new documents that are not yet uploaded. The second quadrant may include a representation of the number of uploaded documents that may not be able to process without further analysis. The third quadrant may include a representation of the number of uploaded documents that have been automatically processed by the software and are ready to submit electronically. The fourth quadrant may include a representation of the number of documents submitted electronically.
