What Gets Extracted
Every field Sage 50 needs to post a purchase invoice — pulled directly from the PDF.
| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| Supplier Name | Meridian Industrial Supplies Ltd. |
| Invoice Number | MIS-2024-07821 |
| Invoice Date | 20/11/2024 |
| Due Date | 20/12/2024 |
| Line Items (description) | Heavy-duty shelving unit, 4-tier |
| Line Items (qty / rate / amount) | 3 × £210.00 = £630.00 |
| Subtotal | £630.00 |
| Tax Amount | £126.00 (VAT 20%) |
| Total Amount | £756.00 |
Every extraction is math-validated: line items must sum to subtotal; subtotal + tax must equal total. Discrepancies are flagged before export.
