The problem: every supplier uses a different format.

DHL, warehouse suppliers, freight delivery notes, your own suppliers — no two delivery notes look alike. Some have tables, some lists, some are handwritten. Manual data entry is error-prone, slow and ties up staff who could be doing more valuable work.

DokuScan solves this with AI-based field extraction: you define what you need, the AI finds it — regardless of the delivery note's layout.

Which types of delivery notes does DokuScan work with?

Goods / item deliveries

Item number, description, quantity, unit, price — every line as its own Excel row.

Freight delivery notes

Shipment number, weight, pallets, delivery address, carrier — fully structured.

Construction delivery notes

Material, quantity, unit, site, delivery date — straight into site billing.

Food / hospitality

Product, weight, best-before date, supplier, batch number — for HACCP-compliant documentation.

Return delivery notes

Return reason, item, quantity, condition — automatically for goods-receipt recording.

Internal transfer notes

From warehouse, to warehouse, item, quantity, date — for internal inventory management.

How it works.

1

Create a template: define fields — item number, description, quantity, unit, supplier, date.

2

Upload delivery notes — PDF, scan or photo. Multi-page PDFs are handled too.

3

AI reads out every line item and field — line by line.

4

Download Excel or CSV — ready to import into inventory management, ERP or your own spreadsheets.

Every line item individually

Each line item is exported as its own row — with all defined fields. No totals, full granularity.

Custom fields

Item number, batch, weight, best-before date, storage location — you define what you need, not what the tool prescribes.

Batch processing

Upload all of the day's delivery notes at once — up to 25 files simultaneously, one combined export.

PDF and photos

Digital PDFs are read directly. Paper delivery notes via phone photo or scanner — both work.

No subscription

One-time scan packages from €9. Credits never expire. Pay only for what you actually process.

GDPR-compliant

All data on German servers. No sharing, no training on your documents.

Frequently asked questions

Does DokuScan work with delivery notes from different suppliers?

Yes. Since every supplier uses a different layout, DokuScan relies on AI-based field extraction instead of rigid templates. You define which fields you need — the AI finds them regardless of layout. For suppliers with very different formats, a separate template per supplier is recommended.

Can photos of delivery notes be processed too?

Yes. DokuScan processes PDF, JPG and PNG. Smartphone photos work just as well as scanned PDFs — as long as the document is reasonably legible.

Are individual line items exported as separate rows?

Yes. Tables on delivery notes are fully mapped as individual rows in the export. Every line item gets its own row with all defined fields — ideal for direct import into inventory management systems.

What does a scan cost?

One delivery note (one page) uses one credit. The Starter package costs €9 for 100 credits — €0.09 per delivery note. Credits never expire.

Can I import the export directly into my ERP or inventory system?

DokuScan exports as Excel (XLSX), CSV and JSON. Column names exactly match the field names from your template. CSV imports are supported by all common inventory management systems such as Lexware, Sage, SAP Business One, or your own Excel workflows.
