🧾 Personal Invoice Processor

This N8N workflow automates the extraction and organization of personal invoices in Colombia received via Gmail. It includes the following key steps:

🔁 Flow Summary

  1. Email Trigger

    • Polls Gmail every 30 minutes for emails with .zip attachments (assumed to contain invoices).
    • Expects ZIP file following DIAN standards.
  2. ZIP File Handling

    • Extracts all files.
    • Filters only PDF and XML files for processing.
  3. Data Extraction & Processing

    • Uses LangChain Agent + OpenAI (GPT-4o-mini) to extract:
      • Tipo de documento (Factura / Nota Crédito)
      • Número de factura
      • Fecha de emisión (YYYY-MM-DD)
      • NIT emisor y receptor (sin dígito de verificación)
      • Razón social del emisor
      • Subtotal, IVA, Total
      • CUFE
      • Resumen de compra (max 20 words, formatted sentence)
  4. Validation

    • Ensures Total = Subtotal + IVA using a calculator node.
  5. Storage

    • Uploads the original PDF to Google Drive.
    • Renames the file to: YYYY-MM-DD-NUMERO_FACTURA.pdf.
    • Inserts or updates invoice details in Google Sheets using a unique Key (NIT_Emisor + Numero_Factura) to prevent duplication.
