The Rejected folder is where any document that AutoEntry cannot process is stored.
If a document has been rejected, you will see a notice on the Uploaded Files and Processed Items tabs of your Activity page under the Status column.
The Purchases and Sales folders will alert you that an invoice has been rejected; indicated with a red dot next to the item in your Rejected folder, and on the Rejected tab icon. Interacting with the rejected items (clicking View) will remove the notification.
Why are documents rejected?
Why are documents rejected?
When a file has been rejected, it means that there is an issue with it preventing data from being extracted/processed.
Documents uploaded with any of the following issues will be rejected:
It has been uploaded previously
The image/scan quality is too poor for our system to extract the data
It has been uploaded to the wrong folder
Some crucial data is missing, preventing extraction
The image/scan is a screenshot or contains handwriting
The file's data is corrupted or password-protected
📎NOTE: You will be charged for rejected files as there has been an attempt to process them. This does not apply to bank statements.
