Normalizing dates and currency requires explicit rules, not guesses, to prevent silent corruption.
Multi-channel intake creates duplicates that simple matching rules cannot catch.
Embed validation rules into extraction pipelines to catch errors before data flows downstream.
Separate handwriting recognition from field extraction to avoid costly misplacements.
Field-level accuracy reveals extraction failures that character-level metrics systematically hide.
Extraction quality sets the hard ceiling on how accurate vendor matching can be.
Mandatory fields catch extraction failures that high accuracy scores miss.
Catching schema violations at extraction prevents costly failures buried three systems deep.
Schema validation catches syntax errors, not the cross-field contradictions that break invoices.
