Packing Slip Parser Setup Guide
Extract packing slip data with a custom Parser. Validate shipments by extracting PO numbers, item quantities, and weights.
Before You Start
Before setting up your parser, ensure you have:
- A PerfectParser account (sign up at perfectparser.com).
- A healthy credit balance (each packing slip page processed consumes 1 credit).
- A sample packing slip document (PDF, PNG, or JPEG) to use during the parser setup.

| Field Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
slip_number | Text | The unique packing slip or delivery note reference number. |
po_reference | Text | The associated purchase order number. |
shipper_name | Text | The company or vendor shipping the package. |
recipient_name | Text | The recipient name or company details. |
ship_date | Text | The date the shipment was dispatched. |
shipped_items | Table | Table containing item_code, description, qty_ordered, and qty_shipped for each package item. |
