System and method for extracting data from invoices and contracts

A system for processing data, the system comprising:

• a communication module configured to retrieve a first document and a second document, wherein the first document contains unstructured or semi structured data or a combination of both;
• and wherein the second document contains unstructured or semi structured data or a combination of both;
• a first database configured to store the first and second documents;
• and
• a processor configured to extract first data from the unstructured or semi-structured data contained in the first document;
• to order the first data into a first data structure using a set of translation tables;
• wherein the first data structure has a first format;
• to extract second data from the unstructured or semi-structured data contained in the second document using an extraction table having a predefined format configured to pre-order the second data;
• and
• to order the second data into a second data structure using the set of translation tables;
• wherein the second data structure has a second format;
• wherein the first data and the second data comprise a plurality of entities, the processor being configured to compare entities from the first data structure and the second data structure to identify matching entities, and
• wherein the processor is configured to order the first data and the second data by executing a natural language processing algorithm configured to process data using the set of translation tables;
• wherein the natural language processing algorithm is configured to identify primitive entities and to label each primitive entity with an attribute among a set of attributes;
• wherein the set of attributes comprises at least one of a technology attribute, an action attribute, a destination attribute, an origination attribute, a location attribute, a country attribute, and a rule attribute.
