Amount Settings

These settings specify the format string and what characters are ignored for a valid amount.

Format

This is a simple expression that defines the format of an amount. For more information on Simple Expressions, see the Transformation Designer Help.

Kofax recommends that you use the default value of #[2-10] for this setting. This means that a string with between two and ten digits is expected.

For example, a value of 999.99 is accepted as an amount because it is between two and ten digits in length. The decimal point is ignored.

Ignore Characters

These are special characters that may appear in an amount, but can be ignored.

Kofax recommends that you use the default value of ,.'-_$£¥*^€ for this setting. You can add additional characters to cover a wider variety of currency symbols to ignore, if necessary.

Deactivate Cross Validation

If selected, the mathematical checks applied to the extracted invoice amounts in Validation are deactivated.

This setting is cleared by default.

The thousand separator character that is used when formatting the amount for data export.

The value for this option is set to , by default.

Export Decimal Separator

The decimal separator character that is used when formatting the amount for data export.
