Script Integration

A VBA-compatible script engine is built into Ascent Xtrata Pro. This engine can be
used to extend the capabilities of the classification, extraction, and validation
methods. The script is called when specific events occur before and after
classification. In the scripting environment, the complete Ascent Xtrata Pro object
document model is available to the script programmer.

Release Script

The Xtrata Pro Statistics release script lets you configure the settings for online
learning and statistical information.

To make online learning and statistical information available, the standard Ascent
Capture Release module must be added to the list of queues for the batch class and
the Xtrata Pro Statistics release script must be added to each Ascent Capture
document class in the batch class.

For further details about release scripts, see the Ascent Capture documentation.

Statistical Information

The statistics database contains information about server performance and
recognition accuracy. For a period of time, statistical information is available for each
field and document. After a user configurable number of days, this detailed
information will be accumulated into average daily values.

You can set the number of days in the properties dialog box for the release script.

Recognition accuracy statistics are available at the field level and as an average value
for each document. Furthermore, it is possible to group the statistical information by
the classification result or by other field values. You can then further evaluate the
statistical data by grouping it according to the value of that field. For example,
recognition accuracy or OCR computing time can be tracked for a field and then
grouped by supplier or by Ascent Capture document class.

The group value is set in the properties dialog box for the release script.

Validation

Before you can use the Ascent Xtrata Pro Validation module to correct documents,
validation must be set up in the Ascent Xtrata Pro Project Builder. Furthermore,
validation thresholds must be assigned, as well as validation methods and rules.
