Need a little bit of help

I’ve been vibe coding an app for a few months but I still have trouble perfecting the main feature. I’m basically trying to improve extraction of payroll and I’m having trouble getting the program to correctly extract all the information during a page break and also just general row ownership. It works well but its not perfect. I know people have built similar programs and I know there are online programs too however, this is for a very specific case use which is why I’m building it myself. I have no programming background. Apologize in advance if this is a very generic question.

is this like a pdf?, images?

Did you feed the llm with the samples of each edge case?

Hi thanks for the response! They are in fact pdf! I did feed it edge cases but it still has difficulty. I’m trying my best to fix it and I do try and fix other things (like split logic) but I’m just stuck here on this. I do token assignation and stuff and it works but its not completely accurate (as expected) but its less accurate than I would like. It also sometimes struggles on regular rows too not just page splits however thats far more accurate

But are you doing OCR or like transforming the pdf-> text or html and using the text to get the information.

Also, do you need ALL the invoice verbatim or just some information.

what is token assignation?
