AI-assisted purchase order automation for Naviteer
Stop rekeying PDF purchase orders.
PDF Order Bridge uses artificial intelligence to read customer purchase orders, return clean structured data for review, and generate an ANSI X12 EDI 850 file for import through Naviteer's PDF Bridge EDI module.
Replace repetitive line-by-line order entry with a fast extraction, review and approval process.
Reduce manual keying errors
Capture PO numbers, dates, addresses, items, quantities, pricing, UOMs and instructions from the source PDF.
Users see the extracted order, warnings and confidence level, then correct and approve before EDI is created.

PDF Order Bridge
1How a purchase order moves through the bridge
1Receive the PDF
Move the customer's PDF into your own Process Files folder, or let Folder Watch detect new files automatically.
2Extract the order
The app reads the PDF locally when possible, then a leading AI model, set up by Naviteer, extracts the order data.
3Validate the result
Required fields are checked. Low-confidence results can be read again with more effort or a stronger AI model.
4Review and correct
Users verify editable header fields and line items. Totals and warnings update as corrections are made.
5Generate EDI 850
Approval creates a compliant ANSI X12 004010 EDI 850 with matched Naviteer names and product codes.
6Import into Naviteer
Run the import in Naviteer's PDF Bridge EDI module. The order is processed like a standard EDI customer order.

More than a generic PDF reader
PDF Order Bridge is purpose-built to move purchase order data into Naviteer. It validates extracted fields, matches customers, principals and products to your Naviteer records, and creates the EDI transaction Naviteer already understands.
That means less disruption, no separate order-entry platform to manage, and a clear human approval gate before data enters production.

Operational note: PDF Order Bridge is designed for one purchase order per PDF file. AI-assisted extraction reduces rekeying, but users should review results and exceptions before approval. The customer order is created when the generated EDI 850 is imported through Naviteer's PDF Bridge EDI module.
