Releasing Batches

With the Ascent 7.0 Release Script for IBM DB2 Content Manager Enterprise, the Ascent Capture

Release module will process batches based on the settings of the associated batch classes. The

Release module is responsible for releasing documents, as well as index data using the attributes

defined during release setup.

Note

To release to Content Manager, the logged in user must have permissions to add/read

folders and add documents to Content Manager. If items are to be started on a process, the user

must have those permissions as well. Contact your DB2 Content Manager system administrator

for assistance.

At release, all pages that belong to a document will be stored in Content Manager as parts. All

parts use the same Content Manager attributes, allowing a logical association of all pages in the

document. This includes document images, OCR full text files, PDF documents, and eDocuments.

Note

Document images, PDF documents, and eDocuments are stored as ICMBASE parts. OCR

full text files are stored as ICMBASETEXT. eDocuments will also be stored as ICMBASETEXT

when the option "Make documents text-searchable" is enabled on the General Settings tab.

The Ascent Capture Release module usually runs as an unattended module on a Windows

workstation, periodically polling the Release module for available batches. The Release module

may be configured to run during off-hours to avoid any impact to the throughput of Ascent

Capture and/or the network system. To start the Release module, select

Start | Programs | Ascent Capture | Release. All batches queued for release will be released after

initiation of the Release module.

Note

Refer to your Ascent Capture Help for more information about configuring the Release

module (Ascent Capture Help keyword: Release module > about). You can display Ascent Capture

Help from the Help menu available from any Ascent Capture module. Alternatively, you can click

Start | Programs | Ascent Capture | Ascent Capture Help.

X To release a batch

1

Start the Ascent Capture Release module. The module’s main screen will display. Any

batches waiting to be released will be processed.

2

Once your batch is released, it will be removed from Ascent Capture. If any documents or

pages are rejected, the batch will be routed to the Ascent Capture Quality Control module.

If successful, each document’s item ID number will display in the Release module event

log.

3

When you want to exit the Release module, select Batch | Exit from the Release module’s

menu bar.
