👤 Who’s it for This workflow is designed for employees who need to submit expense claims for business trips. It automates the process of extracting data from receipts/invoices, logging it to a Google Sheet, and notifying the finance team via email. Ideal users: Employees submitting business trip expense claims HR or Admins reviewing travel-related reimbursements Finance teams responsible for processing claims ⚙️ How it works / What it does Employee submits a form with trip information (name, department, purpose, dates) and uploads one or more receipts/invoices (PDF). Uploaded files are saved to Google Drive for record-keeping. Each PDF is passed to a DocClaim Assistant agent , which uses GPT-4o and a structured parser to extract structured invoice data. The data is transformed and formatted into a standard JSON structure. Two parallel paths are followed: Invoice records are appended to a Google Sheet for centralized tracking. A detailed HTML email summarizing the trip and expenses is generated and sent to the finance department for claim processing. 🛠How to set up Create a form to capture: Employee Name Department Trip Purpose From Date / To Date Receipt/Invoice File Upload (multiple PDFs) Configure file upload node to store files in a specific Google Drive folder.
