End recognizing table at first BOTTOMSTOP word?

Is there any way we can end recognizing the tabular data after the first BOTTOMSTOP word? 

For example, we need to extract a table which ends with "Total" 

But there's the word "Total" in pages after the table as well. Is there any way we can stop decipher to stop looking at any BOTTOMSTOP words after it recognizes the first BOTTOMSTOP word? 

Is there any other miscellaneous parameter instead of BOTTOMSTOP which I might be better off using?

Hi Venkata,

Does your table end with a specific phrase, such as 'Total Value' ? if yes then you can try BottomStopPhrase

Hi,

In my experience Decipher tends to stop at the first instance of the word, though it may need to be trained on the table layout to support this. If this isn't working I'm not sure if there's an alternative, perhaps "RowAreaExcludeValues = Total".

"BottomStopPhrase" only works when "BorderTable=On" is also used.

Thanks

The problem we have is, there are multiple "Total Value"s and we want it to stop after the first one. 

@Ben.Lyons1

Interesting. In our experience it always takes the last instance of the BottomStop word in the document.

Hi Venkata,

Perhaps try enabling the "Strict Mode" for the table. Enter the following parameter in any of the table fields misc parameters "StrictMode = 1".

You will need to restart your training data for this to take full effect.

Thanks

To stop recognizing tabular data after the first "BOTTOMSTOP" word:

  • Set a Custom End Condition: Configure your tool to end extraction upon encountering "Total."
  • Post-Processing Filter: Extract the table fully and then trim data after the first "Total."
  • Check Tool Settings: Look for options to define custom end markers.
