Quick Fields Scanning - Creates new document for each page

Quick Fields

Updated June 25, 2020

asked on July 6, 2017

I have a Quick Fields session that does not need to identify documents as each PDF we are processing is it's own document. To do this i use the 'Keep each file as a separate document' option in the universal capture configuration window.

When running the session in Quick Fields everything operates fine. When running the same session in Quick Fields Scanning each page of the document is split into separate documents. I have run into this a couple of times now and looking for any input on how to get the Quick Fields Scanning app to operate the session as designed.

Thank you for reporting this. I can now reproduce the issue: it appears that this is caused by a bug related to the Token Accumulator process. Bug reference TFS#34192 has been filed.

As a workaround, I was able to get the desired behavior in Quick Fields Scanning by adding a condition to Last Page Identification that will never be true, and then re-publishing the session. For example, I used:

Please see if that works for your session.

The 'Keep each file as a separate document' option is meant to ensure that the document is ended when the end of a file is reached, but it's not necessarily going to prevent other settings in First or Last Page identification from ending the document before the end of the file is reached.

It's hard to determine what is causing the discrepancy without more information. What do your First Page Identification and Last Page Identification settings look like?

What about these options under Last Page Identification:

Does it look exactly as shown above? Or something different?

I know you said you don't have any identification conditions set, but do you have any processes at all in the First Page Identification section? Even just an 'Assign Token Value' process?

There are no processes in the first page identification at all. This is what it looks like when processing in QF (1 PDF)

Here is the same process, session, classification, and document in QF Scanning

The work around works in both Quick Fields and Quick Fields Scanning. Thank you!

Is is possible for Quickfields to take a 200 page PDF of W2's (all identical) and seperate them into individual docs while using pattern matching to fill in the template for each page/seperate doc?

I should clarify that each page is a W2 that looks the same with different employee information on it. I would like to separate that into individual documents and fill in a template with First name, last name, and social security number
