Automate Invoice Data Extraction with OCR

# Automate Invoice Data Extraction with OCR ## 1. Normalize the document Convert uploads to images or searchable PDF pages. Store the original file and a clean preview so reviewers can compare extracted values. ## 2. Extract structured fields Ask OCR for vendor, invoice number, issue date, currency, subtotal, tax, and total. Keep confidence scores beside every field. ## 3. Route uncertain results Send low-confidence rows to a human review queue instead of writing them directly into accounting records. ## Checklist - Confirm the input data is safe to process. - Keep a human review path for uncertain results. - Measure the workflow before adding more automation. The reliable version is not fully automatic. It is automatic for easy invoices and fast for hard invoices.
