This is a minimal example of the kind of structured output the AP Inbox Agent pilot produces. In a real pilot, the agent pulls invoice PDFs from an AP inbox, extracts fields, validates them, and pushes rows into your accounting workflow (QuickBooks/Xero + approvals).
Assume an invoice PDF with the following visible fields (values are synthetic):
Vendor: ACME Industrial Supply Invoice #: INV-10492 Invoice Date: 2026-02-10 Due Date: 2026-03-12 Subtotal: 1,250.00 Tax: 102.50 Total: 1,352.50 Currency: USD PO: PO-8831 Bill To: EconLabs Ops Line items: - 25 × Nitrile Gloves (L) @ 12.00 = 300.00 - 10 × Safety Goggles @ 22.50 = 225.00 - 5 × Cleaning Solvent @ 145.00 = 725.00
A common pattern is a header row per invoice + normalized line items. Here is a single flat table (one row per line item) that’s easy to ingest:
vendor,invoice_number,invoice_date,due_date,currency,po_number,subtotal,tax,total,line_description,quantity,unit_price,line_total "ACME Industrial Supply","INV-10492","2026-02-10","2026-03-12","USD","PO-8831",1250.00,102.50,1352.50,"Nitrile Gloves (L)",25,12.00,300.00 "ACME Industrial Supply","INV-10492","2026-02-10","2026-03-12","USD","PO-8831",1250.00,102.50,1352.50,"Safety Goggles",10,22.50,225.00 "ACME Industrial Supply","INV-10492","2026-02-10","2026-03-12","USD","PO-8831",1250.00,102.50,1352.50,"Cleaning Solvent",5,145.00,725.00
sum(line_total) == subtotal, and subtotal + tax == totalEmail: econlabs.io@gmail.com
