Purchase Order Skills - ABBYY Documentation

ABBYY Vantage offers a set of built-in skills designed for processing purchase orders. A purchase order is a document sent by a buyer to a supplier that lists the goods or services that the buyer wants to purchase. A purchase order typically contains the following information:

A list of goods or services purchased
The total amount payable for the goods or services
The number and date of the purchase order
The expected date of delivery

As information provided on purchase orders varies from region to region, each region requires its own purchase order skills, with region-specific data fields and validation rules.

ABBYY Vantage includes the following built-in purchase order skills:

Purchase Order EU for purchase orders in France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain

The built-in purchase order skills have been trained on a large document set and provide high accuracy of data identification and extraction.

Neural Network Detection

If you are not using data catalogs, the Buyer/Name, Supplier/Name, Supplier/Address, Buyer/Address, Buyer/Tax ID, and Supplier/Tax ID fields will be detected and captured using neural networks. If you want to select a specific record from your database, use data catalogs. For more information about the company detection, see the Advanced Designer documentation.
