Packing slip extractor: reconcile receipts against POs

The reconciliation document

A packing slip is only useful if its contents get compared with something: the PO that ordered the goods and the invoice that bills them. The packing slip extractor turns the paper in the box into data you can actually reconcile.

Fields captured

Shipment header

• Packing slip number and ship date
• Order and PO references
• Shipper and ship-to details
• Carrier and tracking number
• Package count

Shipment lines

• SKU and part numbers
• Item description
• Quantity ordered vs. quantity shipped
• Backordered quantity
• Lot and serial numbers where present

What that unlocks

• Automated goods receipt: receiving entries posted from the slip itself
• Three-way match support: shipped quantities feed PO/receipt/invoice matching in the invoice processing agent
• Shortage and backorder visibility: discrepancies between ordered and shipped surface immediately, not at month-end

Confidence scores on each field keep uncertain reads in front of a human while clean slips flow straight through.
