OCR is only the first step. The company needs the right fields, control and usable export.

01 / Operational reality

Where the problem starts

The photo of the pad contains the supplier, date, amounts, VAT and items, but for the next system it is still an image. Manual transcription is slow and produces errors in decimal places, identifiers and dates for dozens of documents.

02 / Practical approach

A practical way to look at it

Documents & Data recognizes the document type, extracts the structured data and displays it for review. User corrects only uncertain fields. The verified record is then exported to XLSX, CSV, PDF or DOCX, or continues directly to the next system.

03 / Connected context

How it connects to the rest of the business

The received document can be supplemented with costs in Invoices, supplier data in CRM and accounting export. With EDS, he processes the client's documents and with Booking operational purchases. The original file remains traceable to the data created from it.

What to take away

Three practical principles

  1. 01Separate recognition from data validation.
  2. 02Check uncertain fields instead of the entire transcript.
  3. 03Keep the link between the data and the original document.
