Invoice & Document Processing
Finance & admin
Overview
What this solution explores
This reference architecture shows a production-minded document intake path: capture, extract, validate, exception queue, and write to finance systems — with humans owning ambiguous cases.
Business problem
Where work gets stuck today
Invoices and PDFs arrive in shared inboxes. Teams re-type fields into accounting tools, miss mismatches, and burn senior time on repetitive extraction work.
Existing process
How the work usually moves now
- 01
Document arrives by email or portal upload
- 02
Admin opens the PDF and types fields into the ERP/accounting tool
- 03
Exceptions discovered late during booking or payment
- 04
Little reusable audit trail of extraction decisions
Proposed AI workflow
The intended operating path
- 01Capture document and classify type (invoice, credit note, form)
- 02Extract required fields with confidence scores
- 03Validate against vendors, PO rules and totals
- 04Route low-confidence or failing checks to a human queue
- 05Write approved records into the finance system of record
