Document Automation app not ignoring fields that aren't in the document

Posted on by 173

I'm using the canned Document Automation app.  I've got two collections, each a different invoice type.  There are some fields both have, and some field specific to each invoice type.  When I mapped the fields for those that aren't in one invoice type I chose "Not in this document".  However, when the app processes the document, it tells me it needs manual review because the fields that I said are not in this document are blank.

 

Why isn't it ignoring the fields I said are not in this document?

    The default condition in the Document Automation validator flow check that all fields are not empty.

    You can edit this condition to adapt to your business needs.

    It would be nice if there was some easy way to do this.  Hopefully as the AI Builder stuff matures, stuff like this will become easier to handle.  Thanks!
