Running a batch through the workflow

Datacap includes an image file for a new air ticket page that you can use to test manual page identification.

About this task

Because the image file page fails fingerprint matching, text matching, and pattern matching, Datacap starts the Identify Manually function. This function causes the batch to branch to the Manual Page ID task. After you manually identify the page, processing continues as normal.

Procedure

To run a batch through the workflow:

  1. Copy the file NewAirline.tif from C:\Datacap\TravelDocs\images\New to C:\Datacap\TravelDocs\images\ folder.
  2. Confirm that the file Images_Page_14.tif is no longer in the images folder. Delete Images_Page_14.tif, if necessary.
  3. Confirm that Rulerunner Service is running. If necessary, click Start on the Rulerunner tab in Rulerunner Manager.
  4. In the Datacap Web Client, click VScan in the Operations tab. When the task completes, click OK and then click Stop.
  5. On the Datacap Web Client Operations tab, click Upload.
  6. When the Upload task displays a message to indicate that the task is complete, click OK and then click Stop.
  7. Click the Monitor tab to display the Job Monitor page.
  8. Wait until Rulerunner processes the pending batch. The PageID task raises a condition flag and routes the batch to the ManualPageID task.
  9. On the Datacap Web Client Operations tab, click the ManualPageID shortcut and wait for the page images to load. Then, scroll till end of the page.

  10. Click the drop-down list beneath the last page and choose Air_Ticket.
  11. Click Done and then click OK > Stop.
  12. Return to the Job Monitor page. The ManualPageID task now has a status of Job done and the batch is now pending for the CreateDocs task.
  13. Wait until Rulerunner runs the pending batch through the CreateDocs task and Profiler task. When Rulerunner completes the tasks, the batch is pending for the Verify task.
