How Nordflow captures invoice data
When a document arrives in Nordflow, the AI data-capture engine processes it automatically and writes the extracted values onto the document.
What gets extracted
The engine captures the following fields from every invoice:
- Supplier — matched against your master data; flagged as a new creditor if no match is found.
- Document number — the supplier’s own invoice number.
- Dates — document date, due date, and payment date.
- Amounts — total, net amount, and VAT.
- Currency — shown alongside the total amount.
- Payment information — bank account, IBAN/SWIFT, and payment reference (FIK, KID, or giro depending on country).
- VAT registration number (CVR/MVA) for the supplier.
- Line items — description and amount per line (where line capture is active).
These fields populate document details when an approver opens the invoice.
Confidence scores
Every extracted field carries a confidence score. A low score means the engine was uncertain about that field. Admins and consultants can see these scores on document details; approvers see only the pre-filled values. Low-confidence fields are reviewed by the human validation tier before the document reaches approvers.
Master data cross-check
After extraction, Nordflow cross-checks the captured data against your ERP master data. If the captured bank account differs from the stored account for that supplier, a warning is raised. If the supplier does not exist at all, the document is flagged for new-creditor handling.
