Highlight: e-invoice processing
- Contents from e-invoices, especially line items, can now be automatically transferred into table fields, making them available for further invoice processing and verification.
- Files embedded in e-invoices, as is common with most electronic invoice formats, are now displayed in the viewer so that you can easily scroll through all information.
Embedded attachments are appended as additional pages at the end of the original document and displayed in the viewer so that you can scroll through them. You can identify whether files are embedded by the “Additional supporting documents” section (1), the number of pages (2) and the overview (3).
Highlight: IDP integration with DocuWare Cloud
- To make Intelligent Document Processing easier to use, a new IDP component is available within the DocuWare configuration. You can now define on a configuration basis, which IDP classification and extraction should be carried out for the documents being processed.
- For example, by integrating an IDP configuration into an email processing configuration using Connect to Mail, documents received as email attachments can be classified, have content extracted according to their document class, and be prepared for further processing before archiving.
Highlight: Analytics
- Use the new Workflow Analytics API to seamlessly transfer data from DocuWare to common analytics tools. Analyze your business processes in detail, gain valuable insights and prepare them visually to make informed decisions and precisely optimize workflows (available for DocuWare Cloud).
Thanks to the API, you can analyze data from DocuWare workflows in tools like Power BI. In this example, the analysis shows an average invoice processing time of 13 days - The new Power BI connector allows you to use data from the Workflow Analytics API as well as from DocuWare file cabinets for comprehensive analysis in Microsoft Power BI. (In on-premises environments, the integration is available for file cabinet data).
