OCR - Optical Character Recognition Service - Invoice Automation for Scanned Documents

 Updates to Dynamics 365 Finance 2022 release wave 2 include general availability of vendor invoice OCR (optical character recognition). This will automate the reading and recognition of vendor invoices by providing OCR capabilities to complete the full end-to-end automation of accounts payable.


I was expecting this functionality for a while. I've not set it up or tried before but we were using some third parties to manage this functionality. 


According to the documentation, we will be able to


  • Upload vendor invoices to pending invoices as header and lines and related attachments. 
  • Will be managed through data entities.
  • Vendor pending invoice header entity will be change for to add attachment and new entity to be added for attachments.
  • Also for to manage the process UI forms will be added.


According to my previous experiences, there is still need to cover the processes below:

  • Use vendor invoice journal for the processes that do not use a PO or a pending invoice.
  • Use vendor approval journal process.
  • A little bit more information/documentation on the OCR process on how VAT(TAX), PO, company, product receipt, vendor code etc. is going to be managed.
  • To manage customer return invoices

You may find the list below: Manual:  You may fill the description in the journals per line before you post the transactions. you may fill both for account and offset account. If you define a description before, you may select one from the list. Automatic:  Some transactions are auto created to the journals or on transactions default from the hard coded codes, like asset lease management and some functionalities in TMS management. Default Descriptions:  You can setup default descriptions by transaction type (sales order invoice, Po invoice, revaluation etc). On the transaction types you can use static (constant) text and/or variables. Specific Cases:  There are specific cases like revaluation.
