*Almost* Successful: Amazon Textract for Automated Invoice Processing

I managed to get my first Amazon Textract workflow running for Automated Invoice Processing! Man, installing the python integration took me back to installing and running ubuntu packages.

I have some issues on the OCR side of things as well as general questions on the endpoints of the workflow.

Here’s the start point

(Automatic Invoice Processing using Amazon Textract through Boto3 – KNIME Community Hub)

Here’s a snapshot of source invoice

Current issues

*

Date reads as Feb10/2: Textract appears to read the header-level fields correct for the most part (i.e., customer, terms, etc), but for the date field, it adds a colon instead of “22”

*

Doesn’t read line items Isn’t this the most important part of an invoice? We have a PO system and buy/receive at the item level. So pulling line items from invoice would then allow me to create a workflow where I can send an update back to the PO bill what has been received.

Thanks in advance.
