Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I validate extracted data?
Validation catches any extraction errors before they enter your accounting system. Checking totals, line item sums, and key fields ensures data integrity.
What should I check before importing?
Verify that line item totals sum to the subtotal, tax amounts match expected rates, invoice numbers are correct, and dates are in the right format for your system.
How do I spot missing line items?
Compare the line item count and total from the CSV with the original PDF. If the subtotal doesn't match the sum of line totals, some items may be missing.
What if totals don't match?
Check for discounts, shipping, or rounding differences. Our converter extracts what's in the PDF - if the original has calculation errors, those will appear in the output.
Can I validate in Excel?
Yes, open the Excel file and use formulas to sum line items, check totals, and compare against the invoice details sheet. Excel is ideal for quick validation.
