How it works

Structure purchase orders before downstream matching

Purchase orders combine buyer and supplier details, delivery instructions, commercial terms, totals, and repeating item lines. OCR can recognize the page text, but a procurement workflow needs those values mapped into a consistent schema.

Parsinto lets you define PO header fields and a line-item table, process related documents, and review the output. The result can then support reporting or matching in the systems and controls your organization already uses.

Configurable schema
