Automated Processing of Receipts and Invoices

Systems and methods for automatic processing of receipts to capture data from the receipts are presented. Upon receiving an image of a receipt, an optical character recognition (OCR) of the receipt content embodied in the image is executed. The OCR of the receipt content results in machine-encoded text content of the receipt content embodied in the image. Tokens are generated from the machine-encoded text content and data groups are constructed according to horizontal lines of generated tokens. Potential product items are identified for at least some of the constructed data groups and the potential product items are evaluated for the at least some constructed data groups. The evaluation of the potential product items for the at least some constructed data groups identifies receipt data, such as product items and vendor information, associated with the least some constructed data groups. The identified receipt data is captured and stored with the image of the receipt in a data store.
