Populating the Company Lookup Field

A Foundations Company lookup field is added to the Scanned Payable Document object. This field is used to identify the company for which the payable document is created.

The Company lookup is filled in automatically with data from our OCR provider, which matches the vendor's invoice company name with our current company dataset.

In case the OCR provider fails to populate the correct Company value, the Accounts Payable user can review it and select the correct company value from the Company lookup.
