Field Settings

The Field Settings tab provides a tool to map index values from the capture process to index or metadata fields in DocuWare's Web Portal.

The Field Name column represents the index field name defined for this Document Type, while the Linked Field Name column represents the index field name in DocuWare.

The Output Format supports Text Field Masking.

To include a field to be migrated, select the corresponding checkbox in the "Include" column.

NOTE: If there are fields that do not match fields in the dropdown list they will be highlighted yellow.

DocuWare Table fields configuration

If the selected File Cabinet has Table type fields, each will be listed in the DocuWare Table Fields grid displayed above. You can select which Table type fields to include in the migration output.

Once a Table type field is marked as Included, you can configure its settings by clicking the "Gear" icon. Choose which Record Types should generate rows for the given Table type field.

If no specific Record Types are chosen, rows in the Table field will be generated for all Records on the Document. The Standard Field Settings list is used to map the index fields in PSIcapture to the child fields of the current Table type field.

 

Pre-Processing

Bates Stamping Options

Bates Stamping is a legal industry standard for organizing and numbering multi-page legal documents. PSIcapture provides two methodologies for applying Bates Stamping: Capture Bates Stamping and Migration Bates Stamping. Capture based stamping applies Bates Stamps during the initial capture phase of a workflow. Migration based stamping applies Bates Stamps in the Migration phase of a workflow, which is typically the final phase.

See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Bates Stamping

 

Imaging Processing Options

Select Enable Image Processing and then specify the image processing functions to run.

NOTE: The Enable Image Processing affects ONLY images files and not OCR. This feature is intended to be used when the desired images being migrated need a particular function run on them like Despeckle when the user has scanned in color and wishes a second output stream of Black and White images.

See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Image Processing

 

Image Tag Output

See PSIcapture Administrator Guide: Image Tag Output

 

Output Options

Remove specified page from Migration Output: Page to remove from Output

A specified page from each document will be omitted from the output. NOTE: The Remove Page from Output affects ONLY images files and not OCR. This feature is intended to be used when the desired page to be removed is NOT a Folder or Document Separator. OCR is handled in the OCR Workflow Configuration section of this manual.

Remove last page from Migration Output

The last page from each document will be omitted from the output.

Include Folder Separators in Output

Document Filtering

Document Filtering allows you to only output documents which contain a Regular Expression match within the selected index field(s). This is commonly used when creating multiple migrations within a single workflow where you want an index field to direct documents to the desired migration.
NOTE: This feature requires Advanced Data Extraction (ADE) license.
