XML invoice standard – General XML
The General XML standard is not an official XML standard. It is provided with Smart XML to be able to process incoming invoices that do not follow any of the other officially supported standards. Usable XML invoice profiles and definitions can then be created for these invoices using it, so that they too can be processed automatically. Keywords and regular expressions have been included and are used to attempt to automatically find value matches in the invoices.
This topic has separate sections for criteria used to match regular Kofax ReadSoft Invoices fields and line-item fields. Each section has two tables:
- The first table in each section lists the regular expressions (and the corresponding field value format) that are used to try to match invoice values for regular fields in invoices that are connected to the General XML standard.
- The second table lists the Kofax ReadSoft Invoices fields (regular or line-item) and the keywords and field value formats (that is, regular expressions)
