Extract Data from Invoices
Here's how to extract data from invoices using DigiParser.
Quick steps
- Create a parser with Document Processing Type: Invoice (see Creating Parsers)
- Add fields you need (e.g. Invoice Number, Date, Vendor Name, Total Amount) in Fields & Tables
- Add a table for line items (Description, Quantity, Unit Price, Total) if needed
- Upload invoices to the Document Inbox
- Review and edit extracted data, then export or send to integrations
Common fields for invoices
- Invoice Number (Plain text)
- Invoice Date (Date)
- Due Date (Date)
- Vendor Name (Plain text)
- Total Amount (Number)
- Subtotal (Number)
- Tax (Number)
- Line Items (Table with columns: Description, Quantity, Unit Price, Total)
Tips
- Use the Invoice document type (not Custom) for better accuracy
- Use clear field names that match your invoices (e.g. "Invoice Number" not "Field 1")
- Review extracted data before exporting, especially for high-value invoices
- Use folders to organize invoices by client or vendor
