Field validation when documents are processed
The field status (invalid/valid) is related to the results of the extraction (ExtractionConfident), the
defined formatting and the applied validation rule that is attached to the field. During server processing state of the field is
following the scheme in the flowchart below. After extraction, the field formatter and then the validation rules are processed for
each field as defined. The arrows in the figure show how the field state may change during validation checks. For example, a field
formatter can either keep the current state of the field or change a
Valid
field state to
Invalid
, but it cannot change an
Invalid
field state to
Valid
. A validation rule can only change a field's state from
Invalid
to
Valid
, when
Validation rule makes uncertain extraction results valid
is selected in the properties of the validation rule.
