Extract invoices and forms

The useful outcome is correct fields with evidence: supplier, invoice number, dates, currency, totals and line items.

Define a schema

Specify required fields, null for missing information, currency handling and how to represent line items. Keep source page and region references.

Separate recognition and extraction

Measure OCR mistakes separately from field mapping. Correct text can be assigned to the wrong field, and valid JSON can invent a missing number.

Use held-out layouts

Hold out suppliers and document templates. Measure exact field match, numeric tolerances fixed in advance, missing-field abstention and line-item structure.

Review exceptions

Track how often a person must intervene and which errors are costly. FUNSD offers form-understanding context; it is not a substitute for your invoice-specific hold-out set.
