Jobs
A job is a collection of parameters the Falcon+ uses for scanning items. The
jobs that have been set up allow to process items in a similar manner from run
to run.
The scanner captures images of items and stores the information it collects in
batches, which consist of one or more sets/transactions. The definition of a set/
transaction can vary from customer to customer, and even from job to job. A
set/transaction may consist of several page types. For example, a folder, patch
sheets, and the contents of the folder.
Structured vs. Unstructured Jobs
Structured jobs require the operator to scan items in a particular order. For
example, when running a structured job, the machine may prompt the
personnel to scan a batch ticket first, then a stub, then a check, and/or another
item, and finally an envelope to signify the end of the set. If a page type is
scanned out of sequence or if the system is expecting a certain page type, the
system will alert the operator.
In an unstructured job, any of the expected page types can be scanned in any
sequence. The only restriction is that the boundary, in most cases an
envelope, is scanned last. The boundary tells the system the current set is
complete and the next set will begin.
Page Types
The term "page type" is used to specify a collection of criteria that a piece must
meet to be classified as a certain type of item; i.e., length, height, barcode,
mark detect, MICR, etc. The system uses the page type parameters set up by
the System Administrator to classify items that come into the system. When the
scanner processes items in a job, it gathers data (such as length and width) on
each item and compares the item to the page types that have been designated
for that job. This is how the system identifies each item scanned into the
system. The system then collects the appropriate data from the item and sorts
it according to the current job parameters.
