Abstract
An embodiment for methods of processing invoices and purchase orders is provided. The embodiment may receive a set of invoices. The embodiment may cluster the set of invoices based on a series of invoice attributes. The embodiment may then utilize a multitask deep neural network model to split a generated cluster of invoices into subsets of invoices based on a series of invoice features. The embodiment may utilize a second deep neural network model to identify one or more prioritized subsets of invoices in the subsets of invoices that meet a purchase order match probability threshold. The embodiment may perform text mining on the one or more prioritized subsets of invoices to identify matching item-level services between individual invoices in the prioritized subset of invoices and a target purchase order. The embodiment may output matching invoices corresponding to the target purchase order.
