Incoming Documents

Form ID: (AP301110)

You use this form to submit for recognition one document or multiple documents at once by dragging the files to a dedicated part of the form, which is located between the form toolbar and the table. Also, you can click the area and upload the files by following the standard uploading steps (which depend on your browser).

Alternatively, you can submit for recognition multiple uploaded documents at once by selecting the unlabeled check boxes for these documents, or submit all the documents that are pending processing.

Documents are distributed between the following three tabs by their current status:

  • All Records: The tab lists all the uploaded documents regardless their status.
  • Pending Processing: The tab lists the documents with the Pending Processing status.
  • Processed: The tab lists the documents with the Processed status.
Attention: The recognition service has the following limitations for the submitted files:
  • The locale of a file should be en-us. For example, the service will recognize invoice dates as MM/DD/YYYY.
  • The maximum file size is 10 MB. The limit applies for manual and automatic submission of a PDF file.

The form is available if the AP Document Recognition Service feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.
