That is correct Stefan. I did struggle as well initially. But once it's thru initial training with Reconciliation, we will not need the additional reconciliation. Also, I noticed doc extraction is taking very long even for very simple document with just 1 page and 4 fields.

1) Add "Reconcile Doc Extraction" smartservice after "Extract from Document".

2) once the extraction is done, "Reconcile" will create a task which can be accesses in Temp. Complete the task, with instructions in the task which is straightforward.

3) Once the above task is complete, you should be good to go and see the extracted data going forward.

Welcome to my blog :-)

So, you will have to map the extracted data to one or multiple records. Writing the extracted data to DB will not work. What did you try so far?

Stefan-

Can you provide some examples/syntax for the Write Records node at the end of the extraction process in your post - https://appian.rocks/2023/05/29/appian-records-evolution/? This was helpful and cleared up some of the confusion I had with the new AI skills. Looks like I'm able to get through the extract from doc finally and I'm trying to write the data to the DB. Here's a screenshot of my AI doc extraction skill. Thanks.

The problem I also had with the documentation is, that it does not mention that the training only works in the reconciliation task. And without adding this to your process, you will never get any data extracted. That confused me a lot in the beginning.

Maybe the documentation about ai-document-extraction will help:

What exactly do you want to know?

Maybe my blog post helps you to get started.

can you please elaborate more.

This is the initial training phase. You will have to add a validation step after the extraction and route to reconciliation.
