Using Text Files for Coding
Contents
CloudNine™ LAW can import delimited text files to link records in LAW with existing index information stored in delimited text format. This feature is useful when coding was performed in another application, for example.
|
In Version 7.0 & 7.1, Turbo Import cases are not eligible for scanning, importing (dii, opt, dat, or csv) load files, case to case imports, or raw image imports. Only EDRM XML load files are supported. Not all options are available in Turbo Import enabled cases for File, Edit, and Folder. The Scan tab is not able to be viewed in Turbo Import enabled cases.
In Version 7.2+ Delimited text files and Tag lists for overlaying fields onto records in Turbo Import enabled databases are available for use. |
1.On the File menu click Import, and then click Delimited Text. 2.The Import Delimited Text dialog appears. 3.Select a delimited text file (*.csv , *.txt) to import. A sample of the data contained in the file is displayed. This preview can be used to check the order of the fields being imported and whether or not the first record contains the field names. 4.If necessary, adjust the Character Encoding value to ensure the file is parsed correctly. 5.To ignore the first row if the first record of the file contains field names, select First row contains field names. 6.Select the fields being imported from the list of Available Fields according to the following requirements: •The fields must appear in the same order as they appear in the text file. •The records must either be already numbered (i.e., PageID for image records) or have at least one coded field to act as the image tag. Otherwise, the coded data cannot be linked to the images. •Select Image Tag must be marked as one of the fields to import. The Image Tag field must be selected because it is used to match the imported data with existing records. It acts as a "link" between the records in the imported field information and the existing records in the LAW case. If no match is found for the incoming record, it will be ignored. If a duplicate match is found, both records matching the Image Tag value found in the LAW case will be updated with the same information.
7.Select <!-SKIP FIELD-> for fields not to be imported. 8.Select a Data Delimiter to allow other types of delimited files to be imported. 9.Click Begin.
