  3. How to modify or add the information to be recognized?

    • If you have development experience, that's great! You can enter the Invoice Automatic Recognition And Processing automation and directly modify the script code to suit your needs.
    • If you don't have a coding background, don't worry! Here is a detailed modification example that you can follow to make adjustments. Hope it helps you.

    🔖 Modification Example: Adding "Sales Tax" Field Recognition

    Suppose we need the AI to recognize the Sales Tax in the invoice and record it in the data table. We can follow these steps:

    Example Image

    1. Add "Sales Tax" Field in the Database

    First, go to the Invoice Data table and add a new field "Sales Tax" to store the AI-recognized sales tax amount.

    Add New Field

    Add New Field 2

    2. Modify AI Recognition Logic

    1. Enter the Invoice Automatic Recognition And Processing automation and find the "Extract invoice information through OpenAI" script.
    2. Scroll to line 21 and modify the AI prompt to include Sales Tax related data when extracting invoice information. As shown in the figure, we add Sales_tax: 10.00 to the preset prompt.

    Modify Prompt

    Modify Prompt 2

    3. Trigger Automation and Check Recognition Results

    1. Create a new record in the Invoice Data table and upload an invoice image to trigger automatic recognition.
    2. Go to the Run History of the Invoice Automatic Recognition And Processing automation, check the latest history record, and expand the output information of the Split invoice information script to confirm whether the Sales Tax was successfully recognized.

    Upload Invoice Image

    Check Run History

    Expand Script Output

    4. Configure "Sales Tax" Field Auto-Fill

    1. Return to the Invoice Automatic Recognition And Processing automation page and enter the Update the result to the record configuration page.
