This guide will outline the recommended scanner settings you should be using when scanning invoices and statements to AutoEntry.
📎NOTE: These settings are not required for uploading via the Mobile App or uploading digital .pdf copies of statements or invoices.
Recommended settings
Recommended settings
Colour
The colour setting on your scanner should be Greyscale (grey, true grey or similar)
Do not use Black & White! Scans in black & white will be rejected as the extraction quality can be extremely poor
Error Diffusion off
Use Colour if there is no greyscale option
For poor copies (carbon copy invoices for example), full colour can be better although not a guarantee the file will not be rejected for poor scan quality
File Type
Do not set the file type to a compressed format e.g. Compressed PDF. Use either PDF or TIFF
Compression
Turn compression off or down to the lowest setting
Quality
Turn quality up to the highest setting
Image Processing
Turn off any image processing e.g. binarisation, thresholding, background adjustment, or turn it down to the lowest setting possible on your scanner
📎NOTE: Please do not upload screenshots, they will be rejected. If you have a digital copy already, simply save the file and upload it.
