Capture
A common misconception is that any
system for scanning invoices will also capture the invoice content
(e.g. vendor ID, invoice number, amount due, etc.). Content capture
is actually a complex process of determining the positions, sizes,
fonts and styles of all text and numbers, then reading the text
and finally determining what text/numbers represent the invoice
number, what is the amount due, etc. Even a small error rate at
each step, when compounded, makes it impossible to achieve the
accuracy necessary for accounts payable processing without substantial
additional review and correction using tools that are not only
unfamiliar to accounts payable staff, but also unfamiliar to IT
staff. |
