Dext AI Assist guidance is built from conditions and actions. This article lists every field AI Assist guidance can check as a condition, and every action it can perform, including what's not supported yet. To create or edit guidance itself, go to Dext AI Assist: Account guidance.
Fields AI Assist can check as a condition
AI Assist guidance can filter which documents a rule applies to using these fields.
Field | Status | Notes |
Cost space documents | Supported |

Note: AI Assist doesn’t run on documents imported through Commerce Lite or the Amazon Business connection, so guidance doesn’t categorise or publish them. Invoices from other Fetch suppliers, and Amazon invoices you upload or email to Dext, run AI Assist as normal.
Fields and actions AI Assist can update
AI Assist guidance can update these document fields once a condition is met. Adding, updating, merging, or splitting line items requires Line Item Extraction (LIX).
