Why automate the reading of packing lists?

Packing lists are still often filled in by hand, scanned, or incomplete. They require an accurate OCR reading to be integrated into logistics systems. Koncile’s AI-powered OCR can even read partially completed, blurry, or partially obscured documents, structuring the information to accelerate verification, archiving, and status validation.

Extracting packing list

Koncile automates the intelligent extraction of contractual data. Despite the complexity of our clients’ contracts, the tool ensures quality and speed, saving us valuable time.

What fields are extracted from a packing list?

Koncile automatically extracts key data from packing lists, whether handwritten, scanned, or digital. The standard fields references, quantities, weights, volumes, volumes, package numbers, package numbers, sender, receiver are captured reliably. You can customize the extraction according to your business needs or your logistics and supply chain processes.

What are general fields and repeated fields?

In each extraction template, you will find:

  • General fields: These are pieces of information that appear only once in each document (e.g., the invoice number or the invoice date).
  • Repeated fields: These are pieces of information that appear multiple times in a document, such as item descriptions or prices in each line of a quote. Use repeated fields for extracting tables and charts from your documents.
