Security setting

You can specify the Security setting for all fields (excluding logo identifiers). This can be done on the field profile level and the field definition level:

For field profiles (single item and line item fields), these settings are found in the Interpretation settings of the Field profile dialog.

For single item field definitions, these settings can be found in the Advanced dialog.

For line item field definitions, these settings are found in the Interpretation settings of the Line item field definition dialog.

Use the Security slider to adjust how sure Interpret must be about each character.

Maximum security means that Interpret must be absolutely sure about every character.

Maximum interpretation means that Interpret guesses when it is not sure of a character. The higher the security, the less Interpret guesses and the more sure the result is.

Use high or maximum security:

If fields are falsely marked as complete too frequently. You want INVOICES to display an asterisk (*) and set the field status to Error when INVOICES is not sure of a character.

Example

A supplier has important data, such as an article number that you need, in a description field that can contain both numbers and letters. Use high or maximum security.
Use high or maximum interpretation (low security):

If you want more fields to be marked as complete. You want INVOICES to display the most likely character and set the field status to Complete when INVOICES is not sure of a character.

Warning
This setting can have unexpected results. The effect can be very different for different fields. Results can vary greatly depending on the quality of the invoice and the invoice image. Test the effect of your changes on a large number of invoices. High or maximum interpretation can result in undetected errors. Wrong characters can be shown for a field with Complete status. Use only for fields that are validated against valid values, or fields whose values do not have to be correct.
