Hi @Paul Andrews , Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A Platform.
Unfortunately, the auto-label table functionality in Form Recognizer currently only supports single-page tables.
Generally, if the layout table extracts the result you need, you can skip the labeling process. If it isn't exactly what you need, then select the auto label button to edit the values as needed. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-custom-label-tips?view=form-recog-3.0.0#auto-label-tables
Regarding the checkbox that says, "I understand that the entire table will be overwritten by the above content", this is because the auto-label functionality is designed to label the entire table on a single page. If you have already labeled part of the table on another page, selecting this checkbox will overwrite that progress.
I believe there is currently no way to append the results to an existing table, you can label each page of the table separately.
To accurately extract data from tables that span multiple pages, label them as a single table and include documents with the table on a single page and documents with the table spanning multiple pages with all rows labeled in the training dataset. Refer to this link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-custom-label?view=form-recog-3.0.0#create-a-balanced-dataset
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
