You must define the type of information to store in a document property value that is assigned to a captured document. For Single or Batch mode, you set a document property type in a capture profile. For Package mode, you set a document property type in the Basket Definition dialog box while creating or editing a basket. The following list describes each type you can choose to define a document property.
- Application
- Assign a value captured from an application plan.
- Barcode
- Assign a value captured from one of the recognized barcodes. You must supply the number of the barcode in the Value field. You can parse a single barcode into separate values with the standard barcode parsing syntax <barcode position number> | <starting character> - <ending character>.
- Batch Sequence
- Assign the unique Batch Sequence number assigned to a batch of captured documents. The Batch Sequence number helps group pages of a captured batch of documents together.
- COM Value
- Assign a value gathered from your business application through a COM interface specified in the Value field. For Single and Batch modes, to allow a user to change the property value, select the “Allow user updates to this value” check box.
- Date/Time
- Assign the date and time that Perceptive Content captures the document.
- Document Type
- Assign a pre-defined document type selected from the Value list.
- Document Type List
- Select a pre-defined document type list from the Value list for a user to choose from when capturing the document.
- Empty
- Do not assign a value.
- Imprinter Value
- Assign a data string captured from imprinter hardware. Imprinter hardware connects to a scanner and prints a data string on the original scanned document.
- Literal
- Assign the static value entered in the Value field.
- Notes
- Assign a static value entered in the Value box. This text appears in the Notes field in the Properties pane when users view a document in Viewer.
- OCR Zone
- Assign a value gathered through OCR when the document is submitted to the server for Recognition Agent processing. Click the Settings button to configure the OCR zone on the document.
- Predefined List Local
- Create a list of values in the Value field for a user to choose from when Perceptive Content captures the document. Perceptive Content stores the list of values locally.
- Predefined List Server
- Create a list of values in the Value field for a user to choose from when Perceptive Content captures the document. Perceptive Content stores the list of values on the server.
- Sequence Number
- Assign a sequence number for Perceptive Content to retrieve a serial number from a sequence table or define your own sequence number. You can create a new group of numbers with varying widths and increments. For example, you can create a sequence called Sequence_indexkey1, where the width is 5 and the increment is 1. Perceptive Content would assign 00001 to the first document, 00002 to the second document, and so on.
- System Drawer
- Assign the name of a drawer.
- Unique ID
- Assign the Unique ID that Perceptive Content generates. Choose this type if you want to treat each page of a batch separately.
- User Entry
- Prompt the user who captures the document to enter a value.
- User Name
- Assign the name of the user who captured the document.
- VB Script
- Assign a value gathered from your business application through a VB Script entered in the Value field. After you enter a script, click Test to review the output.
