Processing invoices (prebuilt or custom)

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 77

Hi all,

 

I'd like to process the vendor invoices for the company I work for.

I've looked at the prebuilt Invoice Processing component. From what I understand, the model this uses is not extendable or can be trained with additional documents. Is that correct?

 

So I've created some custom models.

Currently, there are a max of 100 collections possible.

Should every collection be a separate vendor? Or just similar layouts?

Because if every collection has to contain the same vendor invoice (just different instances), than 100 collections won't get close to what a big international company needs to process.

We have hundreds of vendors...

 

Any thoughts, answers, ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Ernst Wolthaus

    Hi,

    Correct at the moment the prebuilt invoice processing model is not extensible.

    Though, we are working to make it customizable by next summer.

     

    Regarding collections, it is supposed to be a similar layout.

    So often, various vendors will use the same invoice layout (as they use the same invoice generating software) so you shouldn't have to create a collection for each vendor. 

     

    Last, the limit of collections is actually 200 now.

    Cedrick,

     

    Just a quick follow up question:

    Will the number of collections be expanded beyond 200 in the near future?

     

    Regards,

    Ernst

    Hi,

     

    We are rather working on having smarter models so collections will no longer be required.

    You will just pass samples of all your documents and the model will be powerful enough to find the information as long as the model knows the layout.

    So stay tuned!

    Probably next summer but nothing more precise at this stage.
