Invoice semantics as audit-ready evidence

A note on connecting invoice fields, validation logic, and business context so digital records remain auditable.

Semantics before automation

Automation only works when these meanings are explicit. This note sketches how invoice semantics can support validation, traceability, and review without turning professional judgment into opaque code.
