Add fields to a field group

A field group in a folder type can contain multiple fields.

A child folder type inherits a field group with all fields including the properties from the parent folder type. However, the verification settings defined for a field group in a parent folder type are not inherited to the child folder type.

To report consistent values, especially for date fields, you must assign formatters to field data types. See Field formatters.

Navigate to Capture > Folders.

The Folders page appears.
Open the folder.
Expand the folder and select the field group for which to add fields and click Field on the Design bar.

Alternatively, click  adjacent to the field group.

TotalAgility adds a new field, Field1 of type Text, to the field group. You can change the field type name by double-clicking the field or when configuring the general properties of the field.
Select the field. In the properties panel, configure the field properties.
Add more fields as required.

You can search for a specific field in the folder tree.
To delete a field, click  for the field to delete.

On confirmation, the selected field is deleted.
Save or release the folder.

System-defined properties of a folder type field

A folder type field contains some system-defined properties which are only visible when consuming a folder type field in a process or activity; they are not visible when maintaining folder types.

Property/Attribute Name	Type	Description
Confidence	Double	Holds the value for the confidence of a field.
Date value	Date	Holds the date value for the fields of date type.
Double value	Double	Holds the double value for the fields of number type.
Error description	String	Error description of the runtime folder field validation.
Extraction confident	Bool	Determines if the field extraction is confident. If the Required manual field confirmation property of a folder field is enabled, then Extraction confident and Valid properties are set to False. TotalAgility ignores extraction confidence when validating fields for a Scan create new job form, or a form based on Scan activity because the extraction confidence is false for all fields in a newly scanned folder.
Field alternatives	Complex	Alternative field values based on extraction results.
Forced valid	Bool	Determines if the field is manually set valid. (forced valid)
Height	Double	Holds the value for the height of the field, that is, the height of the field zone on the image.
Left	Double	Holds the value for the left coordinate of the field.
Page Index	Double	Holds the value for the page index of the field, that is, the index of the field from which field was extracted
Preserve	Bool	Determines whether to preserve field data during extraction or during reclassifying the folder to another type that has the same field name.
String tag	String	Stores the string data.
Suppress training	Bool	Determines whether to suppress training for this field.
Tag	Double	Stores an integer data.
Top	Double	Holds the value for the top coordinate of the field.
Training needed	Bool	Determines if the training is needed for the field.
Use for statistics	Bool	Determines if the field value and metrics participate in statistics.
Valid	Bool	Determines if the field is valid.
Valid value	String	Holds the formatted and validated value of the field.
Value	String	Holds the text value of the field.
Verified	Bool	Determines if the field is verified.
Width	Double	Holds the value for the width of the field, that is, the width of the field zone on the image.
