Quick overview
Quick overview This workflow collects purchase order PDFs through an n8n form, extracts header fields and line-item tables with easybits Extractor, appends one row per article to Google Sheets, and shows a completion summary highlighting any missing or incomplete extracted fields. How it works Receives a form submission with one or more uploaded purchase order PDF files. Splits the upload into one workflow item per PDF and processes the PDFs one at a time. Sends each PDF to easybits Extractor to extract purchase order header details and the articles table. Flattens the extracted articles into one row per line item, repeats the PO header fields on each row, and records per-document flags for missing header values or incomplete article fields. Appends the generated rows to a Google Sheets worksheet. After all PDFs are processed, builds a summary of any flagged documents and displays it on the n8n form completion screen. Setup Create an easybits Extractor account, generate an API key, add it as an easybits Extractor credential, and configure the extractor fields (mark_for, po_number, po_date, delivery_date, pr_number, reference_no, and an articles array with article/unit/quantity). Add a Google Sheets OAuth2 credential and set the target Google Sheets document ID and worksheet name in the append step. Create a Google Sheet with a header row that matches the workflow’s column names exactly (Document Name, PO Number, PO Date, Delivery Date, Mark For, PR Number, Reference No., Article, Unit, Quantity).
