Document Intelligence for Wealth Managers
Step-by-step guide to uploading financial documents, reviewing extractions, and exporting reports.
Document Intelligence — Wealth Manager Guide
Extract structured data from PDFs and images in under 60 seconds. No manual data entry. No spreadsheet gymnastics.
What You Can Extract
Sentinel’s Nexus pipeline reads the following document types:
| Document Type | Data Extracted | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| CAS Statements | Holdings, transactions, NAVs, XIRR | Portfolio reconciliation |
| AIF Statements | L1/L2/L3 holdings, capital calls, distributions | Alternative investment tracking |
| PMS Reports | Stock-level holdings, sector allocation | Discretionary mandate monitoring |
| MF Order Forms | Scheme, amount, mode, bank details | Order validation |
| KYC Forms | Client demographics, FATCA, nominee | Onboarding compliance |
Step-by-Step: Upload → Review → Export
Step 1: Upload
- Navigate to Documents in the Sentinel sidebar.
- Drag and drop your PDF or click Upload.
- Sentinel pre-classifies the document type automatically.
- Click Process to start the 12-stage extraction pipeline.
Tip: For best results, ensure scans are 300 DPI or higher. Blurry images may trigger the review queue.
Step 2: Monitor Progress
The progress bar shows real-time stage updates:
Upload ✓ → Classify ✓ → Layout Detect ✓ → Extract ✓ → Validate → Store
- Light documents (≤10 pages): ~30 seconds
- Heavy documents (11–100 pages): ~2 minutes
- Extra-large (>100 pages): ~5 minutes
Step 3: Review Extraction
Once complete, you’ll see:
- Holdings table with ISIN, scheme name, units, NAV, market value
- Confidence scores per field (green = high, amber = review, red = manual check)
- Summary panel with total AUM, asset allocation breakdown, and top 5 holdings
Click any field to edit it. Your correction feeds back into the validation engine.
Step 4: Export
| Format | Best For |
|---|---|
| Excel | Client presentations, CRM import, reconciliation |
| PDF Report | Formal client communication |
| JSON | System-to-system integration |
Common Scenarios
Scenario: Multi-Account CAS
A single CAS contains 4 family accounts. Nexus detects and isolates each account automatically. You can:
- View each account separately
- Merge into a consolidated family view
- Export per-account or consolidated Excel
Scenario: Handwritten Order Form
Upload a signed MF order form. The KimiOCR Agent (specialized handwriting model) reads the form and maps it to the order schema. Operations receives a notification for final approval.
Scenario: Batch Processing
Select up to 20 documents and click Batch Process. Documents queue automatically by size. You’ll receive a notification when the batch completes.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| “Low confidence on ISIN” | Poor scan quality or non-standard layout | Edit the field manually or re-upload at higher DPI |
| “Document classification failed” | Unsupported format or corrupted PDF | Convert to standard PDF and retry |
| “Validation error: sums don’t match” | Missing page in upload or table split across pages | Check page count; use “Stitch Table” option |
| “Extraction timeout” | Document >100 pages or complex tables | Document splits automatically; check Heavy queue |
Best Practices
- Upload original PDFs when possible — scanned images lose metadata
- Verify page count after upload — missing pages are the #1 cause of validation errors
- Review amber fields within 24 hours — they improve model accuracy for your tenant
- Use consistent file naming — e.g.,
ClientName_CAS_YYYYMMDD.pdf - Export before end-of-day — extractions are retained for 7 years, but exports are client-deliverable
