I have a PDF417 barcode that contains multiple values delimited by a semicolon. How can I get Kofax 10 to read those values as two separate index fields? I've created my index zone:
Is this done only through a script, or is there some setting I can use?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason
You read the code into a field (no need to assign it to two fields). Create a document validation script that gets the value of the field during the Document PreProcess event and copies the required parts to the fields of your choice. You need to use the Validation module in this case.

I am trying to understand how Azure Search Service works. If you have a comma delimited file that contains 4 fields, do you have to create an Index that contains all four fields? If you don't care about one of the fields in the comma delimited file, can you just not include it in the Index definition? When you upload the data (using code) will Azure Search Service just ignore the additional field, throw an error, or create a new field in the index?

Not really.
If you don't care about one of the fields in the comma delimited file,
can you just not include it in the Index definition?
Yes, you can certainly do that. If you really don't care about the field then you can simply skip that field during the import process. You don't really have to create a field for that as well.
Yet another option would be to include the field and set its attribute in such a way that you are not able to perform any searches on that field. For example, you can set this field's searchable and filterable attributes to false but set retrievable attribute to true so that you can at least see this in your search results. More about field attributes can be found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/searchservice/create-index#bkmk_indexAttrib.
We have several templates that take advantage of using same named labels to populate the data entered in one field to others with the same label throughout envelope documents.
According to API method Envelopes::EnvelopeRecipientTabs, in order to make this work via the API, I needed to add \\* (two back slashes) prior to the label name so that data pushed to a field would populate all and not just the first occurrence of a field with that label.
example: "tabLabel": "\\*Contract_Number"
This seemed to do the trick.
However, now I'm finding this works like a wild card. I have another field labeled "existing_contract_number" and the data for \\*contract_number populates this field.
I know I can change the name of the field so that the ending doesn't match, but there are many fields and many templates I will need to sift through to see if this is an issue elsewhere AND to fix this particular occurrence.
Is there something I am missing? Can I get the data to populate in all fields that exactly match the tabLabel without using essentially a wildcard?
Thank you.
I suggest listing the template's tabs or the envelope's tabs using a method such as EnvelopeRecipientTabs::list -- Note its include_anchor_tab_locations query parameter if you're using anchor tabs.
Once you have the entire list of tabs, update the values of just the desired tabs.
This may be more work than changing the template but will probably be a more generalized solution for your app.
Folks:
I have recently begun working with xPages. I have a view of documents that needs to present data from other related documents in six separated columns. What I am trying is to use a Computed column that does a lookup to a view with a concatenated string. My intention was to parse this into the 6 columns of data. It isn't working and it may be silly of me to try referring to a computed column in another computed column.
Another alternative was to have the underlying view present the UNID of the other document and then do a #GetDocField on the xPages view.
So I have two questions:
1) May I programmatically refer to a Computed column in a view from another Computed column?
2) For efficiency, what would be the best way to present data like a 'join' in a view?
I appreciate your attention and help.
Cheers,
John Collis
Can you try to “go native” ? You build one view that contains both documents arranged to be in that view after each other. So you have Type1,Type2,Type1,Type2 etc.
Then use a repeat control to render a table or list “joining” the two rows.
This would save you doing tons of lookups.
Eventually you use that view as Json Rest source to do the joining in Json
I would create a Java bean that returns a list of Java objects that contain your data.
In my dashboard, I would like for the user to have the option to filter a specific field by selecting an Execl/CSV file from their computer that has all the values for that field.
I am thinking that I can have a button that would prompt the user to select the file that contains all of these values. My problem is how would I have the dashboard read all these values and then filter the field that the values correspond to?
The short answer is - you can't
A bit of workaround is to to use the compound search to select multiple specified values in a field. For example if you have Country field which contains list of countries you can select more than one by start searching in the list box and paste the values you want to select in the following format: (Austria|Germany) In this case you should provide this list instead csv (if possible) and the user need to copy paste the search criteria.
Another possible solution is to have an Qlikview extension that can do the same for you. The extension will read the file and select the values.
Update:
Using the compound search and a bit of a variable logic might lead you to the same result. Please check this post for more info
I've been finding the answers I need here on StackOverflow for months (thank you all!) but so far my search terms aren't finding the result I need this time... hence, my first post here...
I have an Excel file that includes two UserForms:
The first is used to input certain invoice data and then export that data in a format that can be uploaded into our proprietary accounting system.
The second is later used to post payment data against those invoices and then, similarly, export that data in a format that can be uploaded into our accounting system.
The second form has to be created dynamically in Userform_Initialize, because the number of payments required (and, thus, the number of TextBox and Label controls created) varies depending on the size of the invoices. I've finished the code to create this second form and it works well, but I'd like to add some functionality that is triggered when some of these dynamically created controls are changed by the user.
I've done this in other forms using a given control's _Change() procedure (for example, when I want to move to the next box after entering a dollar amount, I use _Change() to SetFocus elsewhere as soon as the value has two digits after the decimal). So my question is: how can I establish _Change()-style procedures for controls that don't yet exist before the form is initialized? Is there a way to set a "global" _Change() procedure that I can use to loop through text boxes and use if/then/else statements based on their dynamic names?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
When I am using dynamic forms, I like to create object arrays to store the relevant information so that I can quickly and easily reference the objects by "name".
