What are the Different Status and their Meaning?

• Processing: Once the document is in the "Processing" stage, it means it is undergoing the data extraction process. This stage indicates that the system is working on the document to generate output.
• Review: After data extraction is complete, the document enters the "Review" stage. Here, you have the opportunity to verify the accuracy of the extracted information and make any necessary corrections.
• Skipped: When a document is marked as "Skipped," it indicates that the user has chosen to bypass the review process for that particular document. No further actions are taken, as the document is separated out from the bunch of documents which are up for review. To review it again, you can open the document and press the button "Review Again" from the left bottom corner.
• Processed: The status "Processed" signifies that the document has undergone a thorough review, with the user verifying and confirming the accuracy of the extracted information or it can also be a document which got processed automatically through straight through processing. . At this stage, the document is considered complete and accurate for further actions.
• Erred: When a document is labeled as "Erred," it indicates that the document has encountered an error during processing. Reasons for a file getting into erred status are:
  • No data to extract: If there is no data to extract from the document, which generally happens if the file is empty or in case of spreadsheets workflow, if there is no tabular region that we can extract. In such cases the document goes to error.
  • No credits: When you have no credits left or the credits are insufficient, you might get to see this error.
  • Timeout: If a document takes more than 10 mins to process, then the document is sent to timeout. The user can manually retry the document processing in such cases.
  • Password protected or corrupt files: If a file is password protected or corrupt. We cannot process the file further and it goes to erred status.
  • Extraction Error: Sometimes there is issue while processing the documents in the server side. This might be due to error in extraction or Internal Server Error.
