Experience

Elvy Online

https://start.elvy.nl/

I built a C# .NET framework MVC6 website where invoices can be uploaded. The site is reliant on three WPF C# .NET framework services:
• A service that retrieves emails in case invoices are sent by mail
• A service that uses optical character recognition (OCR) to process the invoice data on an image to readable information
• A service that manages these two services

Users can upload the recognized invoices to different software solutions through APIs with different implementations, such as REST and SOAP.
