Having trouble identifying a specific area in Quick Fields

Quick Fields

I am trying to identify a field PO Type i.e. below circled in red.

 

I am using OmniPage Zone OCR and Pattern Matching.  When the scanner scans sometimes a little lower, the "PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER" will be identified instead of "OG". Can I tell Pattern Matching to identify the characters below the words "PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER"?

Make sure that the Single Line setting for your OCR zone is set to "False".  This will ensure that the zone will pick up multiple lines, then pattern match it to pull digits only i.e. "\d.*"

I've added this to the above response because your example does not have a number for the PO.  They are word characters.

I got it to work this way...

Of course, you could just put in Number\s*(\w\w).  This is just for word characters.

A couple more options to achieve the same result:

Or my personal favorite:

This second method means you will always capture what is on the second line only by applying an index to the input token.
