Process Steps on SAP BTP

1Uploading Documents
PDFs are uploaded via an intuitive interface, allowing fast and easy processing of both scanned and digitally generated files. The system supports various input sources, such as APIs, manual uploads, and email integrations, ensuring seamless alignment with business processes.
Each document is assigned a unique identifier to ensure traceability and transparency throughout the workflow. Real-time tracking monitors progress and status updates, such as “Uploaded,” “In Process,” or “Completed,” offering full control and security over document processing.
Using advanced OCR technology, text and numerical data are extracted from uploaded documents. The system handles complex layouts, multilingual content, and scans, with parallel processing ensuring rapid handling of large document volumes, reducing operational bottlenecks and ensuring scalability.
Extracted information is analyzed and structured using LLMs. Critical details such as tables, lists, and specific data fields are identified, organized, and converted into the desired format. The system ensures maximum precision, even when processing complex or nested data relationships.

Processed data is securely stored and presented to users via an intuitive dashboard for validation. Users can adjust or approve the extracted information, which is then seamlessly integrated into backend ERP systems.

The system’s adaptability ensures it can be tailored to any business process, allowing the extracted data to be directly applied to workflows such as financial operations, logistics, or compliance reporting.
