In what format should I upload a bill of lading for OCR analysis?
You can upload your bill of lading in PDF, PNG, or JPEG format. These formats are compatible with our OCR technology, allowing accurate extraction of the information contained in the document. Consult the documenting for more details on accepted formats and the upload process.

In each extraction template, you will find:
- General fields: These are pieces of information that appear only once in each document (e.g., the invoice number or the invoice date).
- Repeated fields: These are pieces of information that appear multiple times in a document, such as item descriptions or prices in each line of a quote. Use repeated fields for extracting tables and charts from your documents.
