Why AI processing needs a workflow
\nAI can extract fields from invoices, forms and contracts, but a model output is not an approved transaction. SMEs need boundaries, confidence checks, human review and final-action records.<\/h2>\n

Choose a narrow use case
\nStart with structured recurring documents such as supplier invoices or standard forms. Define fields, formats, exceptions and the baseline handling time and error rate.<\/h2>\n

Set data boundaries
\nDecide what may be processed, where it is stored and who can access it. Consider customer, identity, financial and confidential data, retention and model-training settings.<\/h2>\n

Keep human approval
\nUse thresholds. Routine fields may pass automatically, but unusual payment instructions, contract clauses or bank changes should be reviewed by a person who sees the source and warnings.<\/h2>\n

Create an audit trail
\nRecord entry time, model or configuration, extracted values, changes, reviewer and final action. Link source and approved record.<\/h2>\n

Connect and measure
\nValidate fields and duplicates before writing to ERP or finance systems. Track correction rates and exceptions; narrow scope when performance is poor.<\/h2>\n
