Releasing Batches

With the Ascent 7.0 Release Script for XML, the Ascent Capture Release module is responsible for

releasing batches and release batch information to an XML file, as defined by release setup

settings. A Document Type Definition (DTD) file is also released that defines the elements in the

XML file. Once the batch is successfully released, the XML file can be processed as desired. For

example, the XML file can be used to import the batch information into your back end system.

The Ascent Capture Release module is responsible for releasing documents, as well as document

data using the settings specified during release setup. The Release module usually runs as an

unattended module on a Windows workstation. You can use the Release module’s Polling

Interval dialog box to specify the polling interval, which determines how often the Release

module will look for available batches to process. 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 the 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

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

batches waiting to be released will be processed.

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.

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

menu bar.
