Variable length separators

You may select from the following folder separation options:

• Separate on specific Bar Code values and patterns: Regular expressions can be used to create a desired pattern. If a bar code matches the pattern, separation occurs. For example, if the value is 990008:

  • Option 1: If the value 990008 exists anywhere in the bar code, separation occurs.

  • Option 2: When ^990008$ is entered as the value, only a bar code containing the exact string ("990008") causes separation.

  • Option 3: If the user wants to separate on certain positions, the user should use these brackets [] to enter value options. For example, if [0-3][a-f] was entered as the value, then separation would occur when the first character of a bar code is 0, 1, 2, or 3 and the second character of the bar code was a, b, c, d, e, or f (in that order).

• Separate when Bar Code changes: Select this option when scanning documents that contain the same bar code value on more than one sequential pages. These documents have only one bar code per page or zone.

• Separate when Bar Code N on page changes: Separation occurs when the Nth bar code on a page changes.

• Separate on any Patch Code: Separation occurs when a patch code is detected on a page.

• Separate on specific Patch Code: Select from patch code types I, II, III, IV, VI, or T.

• Separate on new file (Import Only): Folder separation occurs each time a new file is encountered.

• Separate on new Data Index file (Import Only): Separation occurs when a new data index file is called upon during import.

• Separate when child Folder N of selected directory changes (Import Only): Separation occurs when the Nth child folder changes. Example: Set N to 2 if the desired new folder for the document is the value of the second folder level down C:\A007-19D\C57183.

  • Child Folder N: Select the value of the Nth level of the desired child folder.

• Separate on specific Zone OCR/ICR values and patterns: Detecting a user-defined word in a zone or the entire page causes separation. Example: If the user enters "Page 1" into the field, PSIcapture creates a new folder (separation) each time the word "Page 1" is read within the specified OCR/ICR zone.

• Separate when Zone OCR/ICR value changes: Select this option if the scanned document contains a value that was read by zone OCR/ICR on more than one sequential pages and if the user desires to separate only when that value changes. Example: If you draw a zone around the "Invoice Number" when processing invoices, it separates whenever the number changes.

  Separation happens when any value in that zone changes.

• Separate when Zone OCR/ICR Match value changes: Select this option and specify a regular expression to search the page or zone for specific patterns and separate when the pattern changes. Example: Enter the regular expression "\d{6}" and draw a zone around where the invoice number is located. This method searches the zone, then if a six digit number is located within that zone, PSIcapture checks to see if the number is different from the previous match and separation occurs when it changes.

• Separate on any PDF Bookmark: Select this option when scanning documents that contain PDF bookmarks. Separation occurs if any bookmark is found.

• Separate on specific PDF Bookmark values and patterns: Select this option when the user would like to separate on a specific PDF bookmark.

• Separate on new Email (Import Only): Any new email causes separation.

Some separators unlock additional options:
