Reprocess a Document from the Source Documents Panel

You can now reprocess documents from the Source Documents panel. Reprocess is mainly for splitting multi-page documents and can also change the extraction type if it was processed incorrectly.

When You Can Reprocess a Document

You can reprocess any document as long as its status is Needs Review and Auto Split is enabled for the entity.

If a document is marked as Done, uncheck or mark it as Not Done to see the Re-process button.


How to Reprocess a Document

  1. Go to the Source Documents panel.

  2. Find the document you want to reprocess.

  3. Click Re-process document.

  4. Choose the correct extraction type.

    • You can reprocess the document to any extraction type (AP Bill, AR Invoice, Direct Expense, Bank Statement).

    • For example, a document first extracted as an AP Bill can be reprocessed as an AR Invoice or Direct Expense if that is a better fit.

  5. Confirm the action.


When to Use Reprocess

Use Reprocess when:

  • You need to split a multi-page document into separate extractions.

  • The document was extracted as the wrong type.

  • You want Tofu to retry the document using a different workflow.

πŸ’‘ Tip: If Auto Split is not enabled at entity level, the re-process option will not appear. Creating a new extraction in that case will only generate a single extraction for the whole document.


Key Tips

  • Reprocessing creates a new extraction, so select the correct type.

  • Reprocessed documents show all extraction types they have gone through.

  • Deleting all extractions will display the document as Unknown Type.
