Accountant guide

Accountant is the daily Accounting Workspace role. It should be simpler than the professional verifier workspace and should focus on where work starts: document upload, intake, document lists, exceptions, approvals, and ERP readiness.

Visible menu

In the accounting demo screenshot audit, Accountant sees:

  • Intake;
  • Documents;
  • Reports;
  • ERP exports;
  • Plan and billing;
  • Upload document;
  • Quick recognition.

Accounting intake workspace

Main workflow

  1. Upload one or many documents.
  2. Add client, document type, tags, OCR/AI profile, and batch metadata.
  3. Confirm split/merge/rotate preparation when needed.
  4. Let OCR/AI process the documents.
  5. Review the document list.
  6. Send uncertain documents to verification.
  7. Check approvals and export readiness.
  8. Run or monitor ERP export when allowed.

Batch intake

Batch upload preparation controls

Accountant can upload:

  • one PDF;
  • many PDFs;
  • images;
  • ZIP packages;
  • email attachments routed through configured inboxes;
  • Drive or SharePoint files through connectors.

When eDocify is not sure whether documents should be split or merged, the accountant opens the preparation workbench.

Manual preparation workbench

Full-screen mode is used when the batch has many pages.

  4. Open Documents and verify filters, saved views, and bulk action buttons.
  5. Confirm the UI does not look like the full verifier factory unless Quick recognition is opened.
