Questions about Packing List Extractor.

Which packing list fields are extracted?

The document number and date, the related purchase order number, and the parties: shipper name and address, consignee name and address, notify party, and carrier name with tracking number.

Are the packed items itemized?

Yes. The line items table returns one row per item with its SKU, description, quantity, and unit of measure, so the contents of a shipment come back as rows you can check against the order.

Does it total the shipment?

The totals fields cover total line items, total units, total weight, total volume, number of packages, and the package type, which lets you reconcile the summary against the itemized rows.

What shipment dates and marks come out?

The shipment date and expected delivery date, the marks and numbers on the packages, and the currency are all captured alongside the party and item data.

What are the file limits and is the document kept?

PDF only, up to 10MB and 100 pages. The packing list is processed via the Talonic API for extraction and is not retained for training or shared.

Doing this to one file, or to ten thousand?

The tool reads a single document. The platform reads the whole estate once and keeps it queryable — the same engine, with a memory.

See document data extraction if you run this for freight and customs teams, or the extraction API if you are building it in.
