How to locate fields across multiple pages in IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

How to locate fields across multiple pages in IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture


To set up  Datacap Taskmaster application, so that it can locate a field, such as Invoice Total, that may be on any of several pages in a document We have to observe to observe the fallowing things.

In The APT application, shipped with Datacap Taskmaster provides an example of how to locate a field across several pages using the following components:

  • The Locate Ruleset, Document Level Rule, Multi Page Function contains the following, which allow multiple pages in a document to be treated as a single page for some actions:

    • IsMultipageDocument()

    • MergeCCOs_ByType("Main_Page",Trailing_Page")



  • The Locate Ruleset, Invoice_Total Rule, LastKeyWord First function uses the following action:

    • FindLastKeyList("TotalDue")




The FindLastKeyList action uses the key list TotalDue to locate the field, but any of the other actions in the Locate action library could have been used instead. The APT application has additional features that expand on this capability, but the basic functionality can be created with the above actions.
