Having issues with Azure OCR Implementation.

Question

Having issues with Azure OCR Implementation.

WAQAS SALEEM 0

I am using Azure AI Document Intelligence previously known as Form Recognizer. When I scan a few receipts or invoices, I am not getting the expected results. Sometimes, it gives the wrong Vendor Name, line items, price, etc. I want to have a one-to-one meeting to explain my scenario in more detail with some screens. I am using Azure AI Document Intelligence in my commercial application. My project frontend is in React Native and backend is in ASP.Net Core Web APIs 8.

Hi @WAQAS SALEEM

Greetings & Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum! Thanks for posting your query!

As I understand that you are experiencing some accuracy issues with Azure AI Document Intelligence, specifically with extracting information from receipts and invoices. When It's particularly concerning when the accuracy issues impact crucial fields like Vendor Name, line items, and prices, as these details are essential for your application's functionality.

Here are some troubleshooting steps that might help you.

Image Quality: Ensure the scanned receipts and invoices are clear and well-lit. Poor image quality can significantly impact recognition accuracy.

Document Layout: The pre-built models expect a specific layout for invoices and receipts. If your documents deviate significantly from this format (e.g., handwritten notes), consider custom models trained on your specific data format.

Train a Custom Model: For higher accuracy on specific document formats, consider training a custom Document Intelligence model with your own set of labeled invoices and receipts. This requires a bit more effort but can significantly improve results.

By following these steps and use the resources to find and fix the recognition errors, making your Azure AI Document Intelligence more accurate and reliable.

I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
