Transfer receipts into a reviewable table

Transfer invoice numbers, amounts and dates from supplied receipts and check each important digit.

Check CSV data before analysis

Check CSV columns, separators, decimal values and identifiers before analysis and preserve the original.

Open workflow and template
Use a web page as text rather than only a link

Distinguish URL, browser capture and visible window and choose the appropriate Docsi context for web pages.

Open workflow and template
Use text from images and screenshots carefully

Use images as Docsi sources, check locally recognised text and account for crop, resolution and character errors.

Open workflow and template
Diagnose protected files and import errors

Distinguish password protection, damaged files and unsupported content during Docsi import and PDF merging.

Open workflow and template
Continue interrupted tasks deliberately

Diagnose Docsi interruptions using status, source, connection and credits and avoid blind retries.

AI, data and subscription

When a file or task gets stuck

Start where the workflow stops: import, reading, AI or saving. A specific error message is more useful than several untargeted restarts.

Check whether the file is the cause

Open the input in its original program first. Check that it is readable, supported and within the file limits. A scanned PDF needs recognition; an apparently empty text source is not automatically an AI error.

Try a small, non-sensitive file in the same format. This helps identify whether the problem affects only one source. Do not change or delete your originals for this check.

Check the connection and access

  1. Read the message and note which step shows it.
  2. Check the licence and credit balance under Settings → Subscription.
  3. For AI tasks, check the active service and connection. An AI provider of your own may limit the request through its account or model.
  4. For an interrupted task, check any existing result before starting another attempt.

Useful details for support

Describe your operating system, Docsi version, file format and exact message. Include the steps that reproduce the problem. Share only an approved sample file or a cleaned excerpt, never a licence or API key.

Why are images or special layouts missing?

Import uses a supported content structure. Complex external layouts are not recreated losslessly. Check the format guide and keep the original.

Should I email my licence key to solve the problem?

No. For subscription issues, give the purchase email and error message. Access keys do not belong in a normal support description.
