AutoScan now includes support for the Smartscan VERIFIED feature, which introduces additional consistency checks and cross-validation across key document fields. This enhancement improves data accuracy by validating amounts, line items, and VAT information against each other to catch potential scanning errors or inconsistencies.
What is VERIFIED?
VERIFIED performs mathematical consistency checks across related fields on scanned invoices to ensure data integrity. For example:
- Line totals are validated against header totals
- VAT amounts are verified against base amounts and percentages
- Individual line items are checked for internal consistency
