What it is

OCR plus a fine-tuned extraction model pulls vendor, line items, totals, dates and PO numbers from scanned and PDF documents, then pushes them into your accounting or ERP system. Replaces manual keying with review-only workflow.

Data you need

A representative sample of 200+ invoices/documents.

Required systems

  • accounting
  • erp

Why it works

  • Build a confidence threshold below which a human always reviews
  • Track exception rate weekly and retrain monthly

How this goes wrong

  • Skipping the human review step too early
  • Treating the model output as ledger-ready before reconciliation

When NOT to do this

Avoid if your invoice volume is under 200/month — manual entry stays cheaper.
