Recognizing data with text matching

To recognize data by using text matching, add rules to the Recognize ruleset. These rules locate the data on the rental agreement pages that you identified by using text matching.

To recognize data by using text matching:

1. In the Datacap Studio Rulesets pane, select the Recognize rule set and click Lock/Unlock ruleset for editing.
2. Right-click the Recognize rule set and choose Add Rule. Repeat this step to add a total of six new rules. Rename the rules as follows:
   • Recognize Pickup Date
   • Recognize Pickup Location
   • Recognize Return Date
   • Recognize Return Location
   • Recognize Car Type
   • Recognize Total Cost
3. Add the actions from the following table to Recognize Pickup Date > Function1 and set the action parameters as shown.

   Library	Action	Parameter
   rrunner	rrCompare	object1 = @P.MatchType object2 = Text
   Locate	RegExFind	Date
   Locate	GoRightWord	1
   Locate	GroupWordsRIGHT	2
   Locate	UpdateField

4. Add the actions from the following table to Recognize Pickup Location > Function1 and set the parameters as shown.

   Library	Action	Parameter
   rrunner	rrCompare	object1 = @P.MatchType object2 = Text
   Locate	RegExFind	Location

   Library	Action	Parameter
   rrunner	rrCompare	object1 = @P.MatchType object2 = Text
