Invoice extraction begins with a field definition, not a promise to read every document perfectly. Suppliers use different layouts, labels and number formats.

The decision to make

Decide which fields are required for the downstream task and which need a reviewer. Preserve the link between extracted values and the original document.

Practical checklist

  • Define supplier, date, reference and amount fields.
  • Check totals and ambiguous number formats.
  • Route missing or conflicting values for review.

An illustrative example

An invoice date and a payment due date are not interchangeable. A field dictionary helps prevent a plausible but incorrect mapping.

Your next step

Test with representative supplier documents before connecting extracted results to a production accounting process.
