## Context
The initial v2 parser (commit 9741816) only handled the modern template
(variant B, 2024+). Of Viktor's 73 real payslips in Paperless, 30 from
2021-07 through 2023-11 failed entirely — Claude fallback hit errors on
them and the rows never landed. Investigation via `kubectl exec` +
pdftotext on a sample of the failing docs revealed two previously-unseen
layouts that the parser needs to handle directly:
- **Variant A** (2019 → mid-2022): single-column Description/This Period/
This Year. Parenthesized negatives `(152.90)`. Date format `Date : 31
Aug 2021`. Employer is `Facebook UK Ltd` (not `Limited`). RSU lines:
`RSU Gain Taxable` + `RSU Gain Nicable` + `RSU Net Cash UK` on the
earnings side with a matching `RSU Net Gain` on the deductions side.
BIK items (Private Dental/Medical) appear on both sides — net zero in
the gross, but the deduction-side copy must land in other_deductions
for the validation formula to hold.
- **Variant C** (late-2022 → 2023): side-by-side Payments|Deductions|
Year To Date (note capital "To", vs variant B's lowercase "to"). Date
format `Pay Date : 30.11.2022` (dots, not slashes). RSU labels use the
abbreviated `RSU Gain Taxabl` / `Nicabl` and still include the `RSU
Net Gain` offset. `Company Name : Facebook UK Limited` preamble.
Variant B (2024+) is unchanged.
## This change
### Parser refactor
- `EMPLOYER_RE = re.compile(r"Facebook UK (?:Limited|Ltd)\b")` — matches
all three eras.
- `AMOUNT_RE` now accepts both `-1,234.56` and `(1,234.56)` — variant A's
accounting-style parenthesized negatives normalize to `-1234.56` in
`_to_decimal`.
- `_parse_date` tries three formats in order: slash (B), dot (C), word (A).
- `_is_variant_b_or_c` collapses B and C into one detector (both have the
side-by-side header with `Year [Tt]o Date`); their parsers share code
because the column mechanics are identical — only the RSU-label set and
date format differ.
- `_parse_variant_a` is a full rewrite: single-column rows split by the
two `Total ...` anchors (payments → deductions), pay_date from the
header's `Date : ...`, gross from first Total, net from the trailing
`Net Pay` line, taxable_pay from the `Taxable Pay : This Period £X`
line at the bottom.
- RSU_VEST_LABELS is a shared set covering 8 aliases; rsu_vest sums every
matching payment line. rsu_offset maps to `RSU Net Gain` on the
deduction side when present (absent in variant B, present in A and C).
### Fixtures switched to real pdftotext output
Removed the two synthetic fixtures that no longer reflected real Meta
output (`meta_uk_2019_07.txt`, `meta_uk_2024_03_bonus_sacrificed.txt`)
and replaced with real pdftotext captures:
- `meta_uk_2021_08_variant_a.txt` (doc_id=43)
- `meta_uk_2022_11_variant_c.txt` (doc_id=53)
The remaining synthetic fixtures (`2025_03`, `2026_02`) stay because
they encode specific bonus/no-bonus scenarios and the numbers are
derived from the real Feb-2026 sample in the plan.
## Tests
- 10 parser tests: one per variant (A/B/C) + totals validation across
all 4 fixtures + the existing non-Meta/empty-input guards. All pass.
- 52 total tests across the repo, all green.
## Test Plan
### Automated
```
$ poetry run pytest
============================== 52 passed in 1.66s ==============================
$ poetry run ruff check .
All checks passed!
$ poetry run mypy .
Success: no issues found in 24 source files
```
### Manual verification (after deploy)
1. TRUNCATE + re-run backfill — expect 73 real payslips to extract via
regex (≥95% hit rate), 42 → 70+ validated rows.
2. Sample a row for each variant via psql: employer, rsu_vest, and
taxable_pay should all be populated.
## Reproduce locally
1. `poetry run pytest tests/test_meta_uk_parser.py -v`
2. Expected: 10 passed, each fixture validates totals to within 2p.
