Delivery documents to the WMS: why OCR is not enough
From reading a delivery document to mapping WMS fields: validation, normalization, and handling incomplete cases.
Read the resourceVidoc · Logistics document ingestion
Vidoc understands relevant delivery document data, normalises it according to the validated mapping and prepares it for the configured WMS.
What Vidoc does
OCR recognises characters. Vidoc handles what comes next: deciding which information matters, checking its consistency, aligning it with the expected format and linking it to the right destination.
Formats, fields, controls and destinations are configured for each workflow and WMS environment. Incomplete, inconsistent or uncovered documents remain visible for review.
The ingestion workflow
Each step is adapted to the selected mapping, remains controllable and makes non-compliant cases explicit.

Each piece of information is linked to the WMS field defined with the team.
