Article summary

The AP Capture AI feature uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to automate processing of AP invoices or credit memos, saving valuable time and resources. OCR identifies text on an uploaded document and uses the text to automatically complete fields in Documents to Process. If certain fields are filled with incorrect information or if information is missing, users can train the OCR feature by correcting the mapped fields
