Streamlining Document Workflows with Power Platform & Azure
In our last post, we discussed the challenges of manual document handling. But now, let’s talk about the solution: using Power Platform and Azure to automate document processing. These tools aren’t just helping businesses stay competitive—they’re transforming the way we work with documents.
Here’s how Power Platform and Azure take the guesswork out of document management:
🔹 Azure Document Intelligence (formerly Form Recognizer)
Imagine being able to extract data from invoices, contracts, receipts, and other documents automatically. That’s exactly what Azure Document Intelligence does. Whether it’s structured data (like forms) or unstructured data (like handwritten notes), this tool helps businesses extract text, tables, and key fields with accuracy. It goes beyond simple document scanning to create actionable insights.
🔹 AI Builder in Power Platform
No-code, no problem! AI Builder in Power Platform empowers business users to create custom applications that can classify documents, extract key data, and integrate seamlessly with your other systems. The best part? You don’t need a background in coding. You can build solutions to process structured documents like forms or even process complex contracts with just a few clicks.
🔹 Power Automate + SharePoint
Once the data is extracted, it needs to go somewhere—and Power Automate ensures that happens without a hitch. Documents from sources like SharePoint, OneDrive, or email can be automatically routed to the right systems. Whether you want the data in Dataverse, SQL, or Excel, Power Automate works behind the scenes to automate document intake, classify, and store data efficiently.
These solutions work together to eliminate bottlenecks, cut down manual processing time, and enhance data accuracy. But that’s not all. In our next post, we’ll explore OCR technology and Power Apps for validating document data—ensuring the information you work with is reliable and error-free.
Are you tired of manual workflows slowing down your business? The time to automate is now.
