Data Extraction - Enhanced supplier configuration

Previously, every time inaccurate OCR extraction was experienced for a supplier, for example Totals are not selectable in the mapping, a ticket had to be raised with support. Now, once the OCR method has been configured by Workbench Support, it can be used on another supplier without support intervention.

...

  • Standard: This is the default OCR employed and typically successfully extracts the majority of formats.

  • Simple: This is the secondary option and usually handles most cases that Standard OCR does not, the difference it that text is read from the document as an image file instead of a PDF.

  • Enhanced: This is the third option and suited to formats that may include shading that can sometimes interfere with OCR, and if text is non-Latin, for example Arabic, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese, etc. This is however a much slower process.
