ABBYY Vantage offers a set of built-in skills designed for extracting data from invoices.
An invoice is a document issued by a seller to a buyer that lists the goods or services supplied. An invoice typically contains the following information:
- A list of goods or services supplied and their quantity and price
- The total amount payable for the goods or services
- The currency to be used for payment
- A description of the goods or services
- Details about the seller and the buyer
- The number and date of the invoice
- Applicable taxes
As information provided on invoices varies from region to region (for example, each country has its own tax system and laws of incorporation), each region requires its own invoice skills, with region-specific data fields and validation rules.
