Document Understanding - Introduction
Every company in the world has documents and they create more of them every day. An
efficient way to deal with high volumes of documents is to automate.
Intelligent document processing is not just about accelerating operational efficiency. It’s also
about improving accuracy, customer experience, compliance, and employee satisfaction.

The Document Understanding Template is designed to extract data from unstructured documents,
such as invoices, receipts, and contracts, and convert it into structured data that can be used in
workflows.
Document Understanding processes have a particular logical flow and requirements that are better
suited for a dedicated approach of their own, instead of relying on the existing RE-Framework.
Key Features:
▪ Suitable for all use cases: from quick demos to scalable implementation projects
▪ Production-ready - implements built-in logging, exception handling, and retry mechanisms.
▪ Common architecture for both Attended and Unattended (plus Action Center) implementations.
Simple to switch between solutions.
▪ 2021.10: Ability to post-process Invoices to minimize the number of hits to Action Center
▪ Designed to make development, testing, deployment, debugging, and scaling easy.
▪ Follows the best practices pertaining to RPA, Document Understanding, Orchestration Processes,
and Long-running workflows.

The One-Job-Per-File Approach Document Understanding processes will not run as batch jobs. Instead, an
individual job starts for each file to be processed. This approach is used for both Attended and Unattended
implementations.
