What is invoice field extraction?
TL;DR
Invoice field extraction pulls structured fields like vendor, invoice number, date, due date, tax, total, and line items from an invoice.
01
What it means
Extraction turns a document into data a bookkeeping workflow can use. It is different from plain OCR because the result needs named fields, not just text from the page.
02 · Example
An invoice PDF becomes a record with supplier name, invoice number, issue date, due date, net amount, tax, total, currency, and line items.
03
Where review matters
Missing fields, conflicting totals, and unreadable invoice numbers should be marked for review.
