General/Overview:

Document AI is used to get as much of the Purchase Invoice/Credit Note information into the "Import Preview" Popup to reduce manual keying time.

To enable using the Document AI to present the fields of a Supplier Purchase Invoice/Credit Note to import into Katipolt, you will need to purchase Credits to enable use of the Document AI.

Credits are purchased in blocks of 50, 1 Document consumes 1 Credit.

⚠️ NOTE: Document AI only supports the importing of single Purchase Invoice/Credit Note PDFs.

Once imported, the Purchase Invoice/Credit Note displays in the Purchases List where it can be checked, and if needed, unlocked, edited, and re-locked again.

On Import, the Purchase importer also imports a PDF copy of the Purchase Invoice/Credit Note being imported that can be viewed at a later time. This can be found in the Correspondence Top Tab of the Purchase Invoice/Credit Note Window.

Purchase Invoices/Credit Notes that have a valid Job Reference will be assigned to that Job, making their Product Lines available to be pulled into a Sales Invoice on [Get Costs].
