You can configure CaptureNow to use barcodes to separate documents, separate groups of documents, or to automatically assign document property values to documents.
Supported triggers
You set barcode triggers, also called conditions, for CaptureNow to locate and parse a barcode. For example, you might configure cCaptureNow to parse a barcode that contains the value 1650498029802011 into three parts, and assign each part as a document property value. You might designate the first five digits as a document property value, the middle ten digits as a document property value, and the last digit as a document property value.
The following list describes the barcode triggers that CaptureNow supports.
- <barcode position number>|<range of digits>
- Locate the specified barcode position on the page and use the specified range of digits from the barcode. CaptureNow reads barcodes on a page from top to bottom and left to right.
- Example
- To locate the first (1) barcode on the page and use the first five (1-5) digits from the barcode, specify 1|1-5 To locate the first (1) barcode on the page and use the sixth through the fifteenth (6-15) digits from the barcode, specify 1|6-15 To locate the first (1) barcode on the page and use the sixteenth (16) digit from the barcode, specify 1|16
- >=value
- Locate the barcode value that is greater than or equal to the specified value.
- Example
- >=123456
- >value
- Locate the barcode value that is greater than the specified value.
- Example
- >123455
- <=value
- Locate the barcode value that is less than or equal to the specified value.
- Example
- <=1234560
- <value
- Locate the barcode value that is less than the specified value.
- Example
- <123459
- between(first value,second value)
- Locate the barcode value that resides between the specified values, where the first value is less than the target value and the second value is more than the target value.
- Example
- between(123456,123460)
- length=
- Locate the barcode value that has the specified number of digits.
- Example
- length=6
- pattern=
- Locate the barcode value that includes the specified pattern or digit. CaptureNow supports using asterisks ( * ) or question marks ( ? ) as wildcard characters.
- Example
- pattern=10*pattern=t*ppattern=A?C Corporationpattern=Acme Corporation
- range(first value,second value)
- Locate the barcode value that resides in a range of values, where the first value is less than or equal to the target value and the second value is greater than or equal to the target value.
- Example
- range(123456,123460)
- &
- Locate the barcode value that meets the specified conditions.
- Example
- To locate the first barcode on a page that has a length of 6 digits, specify 1&length=6
