Hi, while twiddling around with IDP, I went ahead and uploaded an invoice not provided in the community edition test environment. After a decent time of thinking the idp came back identifying not to much information out of the invoice, particullary missing out on the items/amount/price table in the middle of the document. I choose "edit table" in order to set the data up, and ran into the following problem (see screenshot). IDP was obviously not able to distinct all columns from each other, due to the layout amazon provided. Item count (Menge) and Item price (Stückpreis ohne MwSt) are identified in one column and tax pct (USt%) and price per item (Stückpreis mit MwSt) are also mixed in one column. It seems that I can only add/select to an identified column, but... how can I tell IDP to split one column with two headers in two colums with one header and go from there?Thx Greets Olaf
