Import legacy documents
Upload old documents, review the values the AI found with page and confidence, and apply what you confirm.
Company Brain, Import reads old documents such as financial plans, price lists or company profiles and proposes values for your company data: company profile, payment terms, product prices and finance values. Every value comes with the document, the page, a quote that appears word for word on that page and a confidence. Values that cannot be proven this way are dropped.
Nothing is written to your company data until you approve it. Applied values go through the same checks as a manual change, and each field remembers which document and page it came from.
Who can use this
- Uploading, reviewing and applying: Owner, Admin and Accountant
- Seeing imports: also Viewer
Steps
1. Upload
Under "Upload legacy documents" choose one or more files. Every file is scanned for viruses and stored in the "Company Brain" space of your documents. "Imports" lists them with their state: "Waiting", "Reading", "Done" or "Failed".
2. Review
Click "Review". Values are grouped by "Company", "Finance" and each product. For each value you see "Value found", "Current value" ("Not set yet", "Same" or "Different"), "Confidence" and "Source". Click the source to see the quote and open the document at its page.
3. Correct
Click "Edit" to correct a value and "Save". Corrected values are marked "corrected".
4. Approve or reject
Select values (or "Select all", or "High confidence only") and click "Approve and apply" or "Reject".
5. See the result
The "Result" step shows how many values were applied and which templates are ready now.
Fields and options
- Proposed
Found and waiting for your decision.
- Applied
Written to your company data.
- Approved, not applied
Approved, but the company data refused the value (for example because of a missing permission); the reason is shown.
- Rejected
Not used. A rejected value is not proposed again when the document is read again.
Tips
- Ask Brain "Where does our revenue projection come from?" to get the document, page and quote of a value.
- A product that does not exist yet must be linked first: click "Link product" and choose an existing product.
Good to know
- Only the first 60 pages of a document are read.
- The AI uses your company's AI key. Without an AI model the import shows "Failed" with the reason; read the document again once a key is set.
- New products are never created by the import.
