AutoScan now includes support for the Smartscan **VERIFIED** feature, which introduces additional consistency checks and cross-validation across key document fields. This enhancement improves data accuracy by validating amounts, line items, and VAT information against each other to catch potential scanning errors or inconsistencies.

## What is VERIFIED?

VERIFIED performs mathematical consistency checks across related fields on scanned invoices to ensure data integrity. For example:
- Line totals are validated against header totals
- VAT amounts are verified against base amounts and percentages
- Individual line items are checked for internal consistency

## Verified Fields

The following fields are currently validated through VERIFIED:

### Header Level Fields
- `totalInclVat` - Total amount including VAT
- `totalExclVat` - Total amount excluding VAT  
- `totalVat` - Total VAT amount

### VAT Distribution Fields
- `percentage` - VAT rate percentage
- `amount` - VAT amount
- `inclVat` - Amount including VAT
- `exclVat` - Amount excluding VAT

### Purchase Line Fields
- `totalInclVat` - Line total including VAT
- `totalExclVat` - Line total excluding VAT
- `totalAmount` - Line total amount
- `totalVat` - Line VAT amount
- `percentageVat` - Line VAT percentage
