               Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants


To the Participants and Administrator of the
Global Imaging Systems, Inc.
401(k) Retirement Plan


In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Global Imaging Systems, Inc. 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "Plan") at March
31, 2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules listed in the
table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are
not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Description of Plan

   The following description of the Global Imaging Systems, Inc. (the "Company")
   401(k) Retirement Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information.
   Participants should refer to the Plan agreement and related Plan amendments
   for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.

   General

   The Plan, established May 1, 1996, and subsequently amended, is a defined
   contribution savings plan covering substantially all employees of Global
   Imaging Systems, Inc. (the "Sponsor") and its subsidiaries, including ARMDAP,
   Inc., AV Presentations, Inc., Brinckmann and Associates, Inc., Capitol Office
   Solutions, Inc. ("Capitol"), Column Office Equipment, Inc., Dahill
   Industries, Inc. ("Dahill"), Daniel Communications, Inc., Henderson's Office
   Systems ("Henderson"), Lewan and Associates, Inc., Office Tech, Inc., Otis
   McDonald's, Inc., and Statewide Photocopy Corp., which were acquired during
   fiscal 2000 (except for Capitol, Dahill and Henderson which were acquired
   during fiscal 1999) and have adopted the Plan as of March 31, 2000
   (collectively and individually referred to as the "Employer"), who have
   attained age 21 and one hour (1,000 hours prior to June 23, 1999) of service,
   excluding employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement, leased
   employees and nonresident aliens. See Note 8 for companies acquired
   subsequent to March 31, 2000 which have adopted the Plan. The Plan is subject
   to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
   ("ERISA").

   Contributions

   Commencing November 1, 1998, eligible participants may contribute up to 18%
   of pretax annual compensation, as defined by the Plan, subject to certain IRS
   limitations. Prior to such date, the participants were eligible to contribute
   up to 15% of pretax annual compensation. Participants may also contribute
   amounts representing distributions from other qualified plans. The Employer
   contributes to the Plan 50% of the first 6% of the participant's compensation
   and prior to year end March 31, 1999, the Employer made discretionary
   contributions annually. For the year ended March 31, 1999, the Employer made
   discretionary contributions of $140,730. Participants direct the investment
   of their contribution into various investment options offered by the Plan.
   The Plan currently offers one money market fund, nine mutual funds and Global
   Imaging Systems, Inc. stock as investment options for participants.

   Participant Accounts

   Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions,
   allocations of Employer contributions and Plan earnings and charged with an
   allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations are based on participant
   earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan agreement. The benefit
   to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from
   the participant's vested account.

401(k) Retirement Plan

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years Ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Vesting

   Participants are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual
   earnings thereon. Vesting in the Employer contribution portion of their
   accounts plus actual earnings thereon is based on years of credited service.
   Participants are incrementally vested over six years of credited service.
   Participants are fully vested upon reaching normal retirement age, death,
   total disability or termination of the Plan.

   Payment of Benefits

   A participant may receive a lump-sum amount equal to the vested value of his
   or her account upon termination of employment, attainment of normal
   retirement age, death or disability. If the participant's vested account
   balance exceeds $5,000, the Plan will allow the participant to elect when to
   commence distribution or permit a direct rollover to another qualified plan
   or IRA. If the vested account balance does not exceed $5,000, the Plan will
   distribute the balance in a lump-sum.

   Forfeited Accounts

   At March 31, 2000 and 1999, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled $102,482 and
   $44,801, respectively. Forfeited balances of terminated participants'
   non-vested accounts are used to reduce future employer contributions. For the
   years ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, employer contributions were reduced by
   $27,943 and $33,386, respectively, from forfeited nonvested accounts.

   Participant Loans

   Loans to participants are not available except when participants transfer
   loans from another qualified plan. However, the Plan Administrator may
   require modification of certain conditions of the loan in order to bring the
   loan into compliance with the terms of the Plan's loan policy. The Plan
   Administrator will not approve any loan to a participant in an amount which
   exceeds 50% of his or her vested account balance (maximum aggregate dollar
   amount to any individual participant may not exceed $50,000 and may not be
   less than $1,000). Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the
   investment fund from (to) the participant loan fund. The loans are secured by
   the balances in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate
   determined by a predecessor plan when the loan originated. Interest rates
   range from 8 to 12%. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly
   payroll deductions.

   Administration

   The Plan is administered by the Company. Prudential Bank and Trust Company is
   the trustee of the Plan. Certain administrative expenses are paid by the
   Company.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Basis of Accounting

   The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of
   accounting, except for benefit payments, which are recorded when paid.

   Use of Estimates

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
   that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and changes therein
   and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could
   differ from the estimates.

   Payment of Benefits

   Benefits are recorded when paid.

   Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

   Investments are stated at fair value. Quoted market prices are used to value
   investments. Shares of mutual funds are valued at the net asset value of
   shares held by the Plan at year-end. Participant receivables and loans are
   valued at cost which approximates fair value.

   The Plan presents, in the statement of net assets available for benefits, the
   net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its investments, which
   consists of the realized gains or losses and the unrealized appreciation
   (depreciation) on those investments.

   Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis.
   Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on
   the ex-dividend date.

3. Statement of Position 99-3

   The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Position 99-3, "Accounting
   for and Reporting of Certain Defined Contribution Plan Investments and Other
   Disclosure Matters" ("SOP 99-3)". SOP 99-3 eliminates the requirements to
   separately disclose participant-directed investment options as a separate
   fund in the financial statements in columnar form or in the related
   disclosures.

5. Related Party Transactions

   Certain Plan investments are mutual funds and money market funds managed by
   the trustee and shares of Company stock, and therefore, these transactions
   qualify as party-in-interest.

6. Income Tax Status

   The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by a
   letter dated July 2, 1998 that the Plan is designed in accordance with
   Internal Revenue Code. It is the position of the Company that the Plan has
   been operated in accordance with Internal Revenue Code and ERISA requirements
   and, therefore, will be considered exempt from federal income taxes.
   Accordingly, income taxes have not been provided for in the accompanying
   financial statements.

7. Plan Termination

   Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Sponsor has the right
   under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate
   the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan
   termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
