Switzerland
Invoices from earlier than June 2020 may contain a payment order reference number, known as either an ESR or BVR number. Kofax AP Agility extracts this number as well as the POR subscriber number into PORNumber and PORSubscriberNo fields respectively. If required, activate these fields in the Settings > Invoice Processing > Capture Profiles > Field Settings.
For more information about these fields, see PORNumber and PORSubscriberNo.
As of June 2020, QR bills are now used in Switzerland. This means that the PORNumber and PORSubscriberNumber fields are now obsolete.
Kofax AP Agility uses the information from the QR code printed on the document to improve extraction. The information contain in the QR code is directly assigned to the corresponding fields, overriding any results from recognition-based extraction.
To make use of this feature, enable QR code recognition.
The following fields may be populated from the QR code if they are activated.
The QR code is highlighted if the extracted field is not printed on the document and it is extracted directly from the QR code.
Additionally, vendor and recipient information that is included in the QR code is used to improve vendor and company code extraction.
If the value printed on the document conflicts with the value in the QR code, then the value in the QR code is used. If no value is printed on the document and there is no value in the QR code, then the fall-back is to use the value from the vendor master data.
