Novobi OCR – Vendor Bill Mapping connects your OCR provider to Odoo's accounting module. Attach a PDF invoice to a draft vendor bill, click Digitize with OCR, and watch the form populate automatically — vendor, invoice date, due date, currency, line items, taxes, and more.

• Automatic vendor matching
  Matches the vendor partner by VAT number, IBAN, or name (exact and fuzzy). Never leaves a blank Vendor field on a recognizable supplier.
• Smart product resolution
  Resolves line products via vendor pricelist codes, product names, internal reference codes, barcodes, and multi-tier fuzzy matching.
• Tax detection
  Reads tax rates from OCR line items and maps them to existing account.tax records in your company (exact and ±0.5% tolerance).
• Currency matching
  Detects invoice currency code and resolves to the matching Odoo currency, preferring the partner's last used currency.

• Auto-digitize on attachment
  When Auto Send mode is enabled, attaching a PDF to a draft bill automatically triggers OCR — zero extra clicks required.
• Review workflow
  Low-confidence results enter an In Review state. Approve to accept, or decline to clear OCR data and start fresh — fully reversible.
• Duplicate detection
  Checks for existing bills with the same partner and invoice reference before creating a new record.
• Purchase order linking
  Extracts the PO number from the invoice and can link it to an existing purchase order in Odoo.

• Requires Novobi OCR Base
• Requires a compatible OCR provider module (e.g. Novobi OCR – Azure Document Intelligence)
• An active OCR provider configuration set in Settings → General Settings
