Table Analysis
Automatically detect and extract tabular data from documents.
Table Analysis
Overview
Table Analysis finds the tables inside a document and extracts their data, so a RunMyProcess workflow can work with rows and columns instead of a picture of them. Price lists, statements, order lines and reports often carry their most important figures in tables that are slow and error-prone to copy by hand.
The service detects each table, recognises its structure of headers, rows and columns, and extracts the content of every cell. The result can be passed to the next step of the process for checks or calculations, or exported to Excel for the people who prefer to review it there.
Common use cases
- Extract the line items of an invoice so they can be matched against the purchase order.
- Pull the figures from bank or account statements into a reconciliation step.
- Turn supplier price lists received as documents into data the workflow can compare.
- Export the tables of a report to Excel for a finance or operations review.

Frequently asked questions
What does Table Analysis return?
+
The tables it detects in the document, with their structure of headers, rows and columns and the content of each cell. The workflow can use the data in its next step or export it to Excel.
Does it work when a document mixes text and tables?
+
Yes. Table detection locates the tables within the document, so the service extracts their data without the surrounding text getting in the way.
Can a person review the results?
+
The extracted data can be exported to Excel or shown in a review step of the workflow, so someone can check it before it is used for payments, orders or reports.
