Compare the extracted data with the original document and correct anything important before export.

## [Open a document](#1-open-a-document)

Open the parser's **Document Inbox** and click a document or its table row.

The original file appears on the left and its extracted data appears on the right.

## [Check reasoning when available](#2-check-reasoning-when-available)

When DigiParser returns reasoning for a field or table value, a lightbulb appears beside it. Click the lightbulb to see why DigiParser chose or calculated that value.

Reasoning is supporting information, not a replacement for checking important data against the original document.

## [Correct a value](#3-correct-a-value)

Hover over a field or table cell, click the **pencil**, enter the correct value, and click **Save**.

To remove an incorrect table row, hover over the row, click the delete icon, and confirm.

## [Finish the review](#4-finish-the-review)

If Reviews & Approvals are enabled, click **Approve** or **Reject** after checking the document.
