Credit consumption for customised Invoice Processing model

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hi, we use the Invoice Processing capability of AI Builder. Since the performance of the prebuilt model was not good enough for all invoices, we've started labelling and training ourselves. In the credit consumption from the last 4 weeks we now see significant higher consumption than expected. My hypothesis is, that we are now being billed for the (custom) 'Document Processing' model instead of the (prebuilt) 'Invoice Processing' model, due to the fact that we have now customised the model.

1) Is this correct?
2) Since we need the custom training only for a few types of invoices, is there a way we can do this in some kind of 'hybrid' mode, where only the custom trained invoice types are extracted with the expensive custom model and all the other invoices are extracted with the prebuilt model?

 

Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

    Hi @N1-JJE ! This document: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2085130

     

    On page 25, you can find concrete answers regarding your questions.

     

    Also, I think your assumption is correct. The best way to confirm this for yourself is to check the AI Builder activity:

    Here you can exactly see what you are getting charged for and how much.

    Hi Tjan,

     

    Thanks a lot for your response. My hypothesis was indeed based on this page in the pricing guide. Do you maybe also have an answer to my second question? And thanks for the screenshot, but I can hardly read it unfortunately: could you maybe share a larger one or describe the location?

     

    Thank you so much for your kind support.

    Warm regards, Jordy

    @N1-JJE  Hi! Regarding the second question. Yes this is possible. If you have some kind of reference to distinguish both invoices you can orchestrate them via a Power Automate flow. Use a switch or condition for this.

     

    Normal invoices can be processed via the basic invoice model. Custom invoices can be processed via your custom model. You will end up with two paths in Power Automate if you do this method.

    Thanks. And yes that's possible of course, but would then need invoice/document processing to distinguish between the two types in the first place... Would be better when the model would only apply the custom model when it recognises the invoice to be linked to one of the custom-trained collections and else would use the prebuilt model. Is there way to make it work like that?

    And thanks for this!

    @N1-JJE  Hi! Unfortunately there is no way to automatically detect that. The choice between which model to use is user initiated. 

     

    If my answers helped you, would you be so kind to mark them as accepted? This will also greatly help others!
