Seeking experience with diligence on a business ran with handwritten orders

by a searcher from Purdue University

Seller receivables are old school and not electronic. So there is a handwritten/form filled order form for everything. This results in ~100/week. 

No tracking of sales by product or customer so I'm seeking advice to get creative about how much time to spend or hire out for this. 

Going through them manually and individually would take any person forever. Accounting interns maybe?

Curious to speak with anyone that's tackled this.
