Chapter 2

Introduction to IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1


This chapter provides an overview of IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 capabilities and
architecture.

What is IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture?


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 is a complete solution for document and data capture.
Taskmaster scans, classifies, recognizes, validates, verifies, and exports data and document
images quickly, accurately and cost-effectively.
By combining the best of breed recognition engines for OCR, ICR, OMR and barcodes with
libraries of hundreds of script-based actions, Taskmaster accurately captures data from any
type of structured, highly variable, or unstructured form.
Taskmaster captures machine print, hand print, bar codes, and check box data. Using
Taskmaster's flexible rules engine, data capture can be tailored to fit the most demanding
business requirements – and can be changed quickly when business needs change.
For indexing applications, Taskmaster streamlines the manual data entry of indexes by using
recognition to automatically identify the index values on each document and to automate the
document identification process.

Overview of Taskmaster Architecture


Taskmaster provides a flexible and scalable architecture that lets you distribute tasks across
machines according to the anticipated processing load.
At one end of the spectrum is the single machine configuration, where Taskmaster components
are installed on the same machine. This configuration is typically used for providing product
demonstrations, in a proof of concept environment, or during initial product evaluation.
At the other end of the spectrum is the client-server configuration, where the various
Taskmaster components are installed on dedicated machines (web servers, database servers,
etc.). This configuration can support hundreds of simultaneous users, and uses centralized
application management and shared databases.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 9


Installation and Configuration Guide

And, spanning the center of the spectrum, are various hybrid configurations in which more two
or more Taskmaster component are installed on the same machine. You might, for example,
run Taskmaster Web, RV2, and Rulerunner running as a Web Service on the same web server.

Overview of Taskmaster Components


The main Taskmaster components are:
• Taskmaster Server runs as a Windows service and controls authentication, database
access, and batch processing. Only the Taskmaster Server can access the admin and
engine databases – all other components must access these databases through Taskmaster
Server. The Taskmaster Server installation component includes a restricted version of the
Taskmaster Application Manager. Typically, the main application settings file
(datacap.xml) is found on the Taskmaster Server.
• Taskmaster Client is used to run end-user tasks such as scanning and verification (also
known as the “thick client”). It also lets you configure an application's workflow and
perform administrative tasks such as setting up Taskmaster users. When verifying a batch,
verification rules run on the Taskmaster Client machine, unless the task is configured to
use the Web Rulerunner Service. The Taskmaster Client installation component includes a
restricted version of the Taskmaster Application Manager, as well as optional Datacap
Studio, DotEdit, and NENU subcomponents.

Page 10 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

• Datacap Studio is the Taskmaster application development environment. When you


install the Datacap Studio subcomponent, it includes an unrestricted version of the
Taskmaster Application Manager, which lets you manage multi-machine distributed
environments by centralizing key Taskmaster configuration settings in shared files.
• Rulerunner Quattro runs as a Windows service and runs batch processing tasks that do
not require operator interaction, such as recognition and export. In a typical production
environment, Quattro is configured to detect new batches and run the recognition process
automatically. After verification and submission, Quattro detects that the batch is ready
for export and runs the export task automatically. The Rulerunner Quattro installation
component includes a restricted version of the Taskmaster Application Manager.
• Taskmaster Client Service runs as a Windows service and is the legacy background
processor for running batch processing tasks that do not require operator interaction. The
Taskmaster Client Service installation component includes a restricted version of the
Taskmaster Application Manager.
• NENU provides application monitoring and notification capabilities that let you automate
administrative functions such as resetting batches or archiving old batches. The NENU
installation component includes a restricted version of the Taskmaster Application
Manager.
• Taskmaster Web supports browser-based Taskmaster clients. The web client (also known
as the “thin client”) provides similar functionality to the Taskmaster Client but does not
require additional software installed on the workstation. When verifying a batch using the
web client, verification rules run on the Taskmaster Web machine, unless the application is
configured to use the Web Rulerunner Service. The Taskmaster Web installation
component includes a restricted version of the Taskmaster Application Manager.
• Web Rulerunner Service runs rules on behalf of Taskmaster clients (thick and thin). The
Web Rulerunner Service installation component includes a restricted version of the
Taskmaster Application Manager.
• RV2 is the reporting tool that displays real-time reports of Taskmaster activity. RV2 gets
usage statistics and other data from the Engine database. The RV2 installation component
includes a restricted version of the Taskmaster Application Manager.
Other Taskmaster components include:
• Application folder stores Taskmaster application files.
• Batches folder stores files generated during batch processing.
• Taskmaster databases - the three key application databases are:
ƒ Admin: Stores information on workflows, users, and groups.
ƒ Engine: Stores batch information and statistics.
ƒ Fingerprint: Stores page template data.
Additionally, Taskmaster applications can access external, non-Taskmaster databases during
processing (for looking up and validating Vendor IDs, Purchase Order Numbers, zip codes,
Customer IDs, etc.), and can export captured data and images to external systems and
databases, IBM repositories, and other vendors' repositories using standard actions and
separately licensed "connectors."

Installation and Configuration Guide

Locating Applications on a Network


The Taskmaster datacap.xml file (typically found in the shared Datacap folder on the
Taskmaster Server) contains information about the locations of the available Taskmaster
applications.
Each Taskmaster application, in turn, has its own application configuration file that identifies
the locations of the components used by that application. This application configuration file
(.app) includes details about the locations of its components (batches folder, input image
folder, databases, etc.).
The Taskmaster Application Manager is used to identify the location of the datacap.xml file
and to manage the contents of the application configuration files.
In the diagram below, App2's configuration file defines the location of the Taskmaster Server
hosting the application, as well as the locations of the application’s databases, batches folder,
and other components of the application.

Installation and Configuration Prerequisites


This chapter provides the information you need before you begin the installation of IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 software. These prerequisites ensure that you can install,
configure, and run the IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components of an application either
on a single machine, or on multiple machines in a client-server distributed network
configuration.

Configuration Assumptions
For information on hardware and operating system requirements for IBM Datacap Taskmaster
Capture software, see:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27020397
To keep things simple, instructions are provided for two configurations:
• Chapter 4 Install, Configure, and Run on Single Machine - These instructions allow
you to install, configure, and run IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components on a
single Microsoft Windows 7 machine. This machine is referred to as the “Workstation.”
This configuration uses the Taskmaster 1040EZ sample application as the example so you
can see it process sample batches of documents. This information is provided to support
demonstration or proof of concept environments. The instructions assume your Windows
user account has administrator rights on the Workstation. For a checklist of the account
and configuration settings, see Appendix A: Single Machine Setup Checklist.
• Chapter 5 Install, Configure, and Run on Client and Server - These instructions allow
you to install, configure, and run IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 server and client
components in a client-server environment for proof of concept, development, or test
purposes. It includes instructions that guide you through setting up and running
Taskmaster software components "out of the box" and uses the separately licensed IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Accounts Payable Capture application as the example so you can see
it process sample batches of documents. The instructions assume your Windows user
account has administrator rights on every machine on which you will install Taskmaster.
For a checklist of the account and configuration settings, see Appendix B: Client-Server
Setup Checklist.

Taskmaster Client-Server Configuration


Taskmaster can be configured in many ways. The multiple machine configuration used
throughout the client-server examples provided in this Guide includes the following machines:
• Taskmaster Server (referred to as the "Server") hosts the Taskmaster Server, the main
application settings file (datacap.xml), the applications, batch files, and databases. For the
Server, these instructions cover Windows 2003, and Windows 2008.
• Taskmaster Web Server (referred to as the "WebServer") hosts Taskmaster Web and
RV2. For the WebServer, these instructions cover Windows 2003 and Windows 2008.

When Taskmaster version 7.5, 7.5 SP1, 7.6, or 8.0 exists on a machine on which you will
install IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1, there is no need to remove it before you install

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 15


Installation and Configuration Guide

IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 (as the 8.0.1 installation process will uninstall it
automatically). However, you should copy the entire shared Datacap folder, including your
application’s process folder, to a backup location. If your databases or batches folders, or any
other Taskmaster components are located separately, make a backup copy of every component.
This ensures you have a backup copy of your customized applications and all separately
purchased Datacap options.

Ensure Domain/Windows Accounts Exist


Single Machine
When installing IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components on a single Windows 7
machine, the Windows accounts you need are local users that are usually found on a Windows
workstation: the implementer's/developer's/your own Windows user ID, and the NETWORK
SERVICE and IUSR local users. At a minimum, the Windows User ID you use to log onto the
Workstation must have Administrator rights to the Workstation.
Client-Server Environment
When installing on one or more servers and a developer's workstation (referred to as the
"DevWorkstation"), all machines must be in the same domain, and the domain must also
include separate, individual Domain/Windows accounts for each of the various IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 services, processes, and users.
The Domain/Windows accounts that must be set up include some or all of the following,
depending on which Taskmaster software components you are installing and configuring:
• Implementation/development personnel with administrative rights on all machines
• Individual end users (with more restricted rights)
• Services such as Taskmaster Server Service, Taskmaster Client Service, Rulerunner
Quattro Service
• Processes such as NENU, RV2, Taskmaster Web, and Rulerunner running as a web
service.
Details about the rights and permissions for each type of Windows account are included in
each set of instructions.
In addition, the Windows accounts used for the Taskmaster Windows services (Taskmaster
Server Service, Taskmaster Client Service, Rulerunner Quattro Service) must be granted the
Log on as a Service right on the primary domain controller.

IMPORTANT
In a client-server environment, all users, implementation/development personnel, services,
and processes must log on using the Domain/Windows accounts set up for Taskmaster.
Logging onto a machine using a local account rather than a Domain/Windows account
results in unexpected Taskmaster system behavior.

Ensure Scanner is Set Up and Works


Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to attach the scanner to the Workstation, and install and
configure the required scanner software. Be sure you can scan successfully using the scanner

Page 16 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

using any image capture software product. If you cannot scan documents outside of IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture, you will not be able to scan documents using Taskmaster.
Note: A physical scanner is not required for running the IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
separately licensed or sample applications, as those applications can process the prescanned,
sample images included during installation.

Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1


When installing IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components on Microsoft Windows 7
Workstations or Microsoft Windows 2008 Servers, ensure the Microsoft .NET Framework
3.5.1 operating system feature has been turned on or added on the machine before you begin

IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Rulerunner Quattro

Introduction to Rulerunner Quattro


Rulerunner Quattro (Quattro) is an IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture component that runs
Datacap Studio application (RRS) tasks that are "background" tasks; that is, tasks that run
without any human interaction. Background tasks are typically vScan, recognition, image pre-
processing, validation, and export tasks.
Quattro uses virtualization to take advantage of multiprocessor systems. Each virtual
recognition machine (VRM) in a multi-threaded configuration of Quattro processes rules on a
batch of documents as if it were a standalone copy of Rulerunner on its own computer.
The ability to configure Quattro to run a single thread is included as part of the standard IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture licensing. Configuring Quattro to run multiple threads requires
additional licensing.
Multiple thread configurations of Quattro support simultaneous VRMs on a single
multiprocessor or multi-core equipped computer. Quattro completes your work faster by
taking full advantage of your hardware investment.
With Rulerunner Quattro you can:
• Complete your document processing work faster. Faster turn-around of documents such as
claims, contracts, tax returns and invoices improves responsiveness and shortens capture
cycle times.
• Reduce the number of physical computers dedicated to the capture process. One multi-core
computer can effectively replace and cost less than multiple single-processor computers,
thereby delivering a server-room/IT "friendly" solution.
• Reduce total cost of ownership by improving utilization of existing IT assets and IT staff
efficiency. The small hardware and software footprint of Quattro is less expensive than
alternative virtualization solutions.
Introduction to Single Thread Rulerunner Quattro
Rulerunner Quattro (Quattro) is an IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture component that runs
Datacap Studio application (RRS) tasks that are "background" tasks; that is, tasks that run
without any human interaction. Background tasks are typically vScan, recognition, image pre-
processing, validation, and export tasks.
The ability to configure Quattro to run a single thread is included as part of the standard IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture licensing. Configuring Quattro to run multiple threads requires
additional licensing.
This portion of the Installation and Configuration Guide provides information on how to
configure Quattro on a machine where all IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components are
also installed. This information is included for demonstration purposes only, as this
configuration does not allow Quattro to take full advantage of the machine's multiple
processors. Do not use this configuration as your production configuration.

Copy APT Application to Taskmaster Server

Overview of Copying APT to Taskmaster Server


This section provides the information you need to start Datacap Studio, start the Datacap
Studio Application Copy Wizard, and copy the APT foundation application from the
DevWorkstation to the Server so that the application can be accessed by other workstations
running the Taskmaster Client or Taskmaster Web Client, and by other services and processes.
The Windows account that you use to log on with (referred to earlier as the "developer"
Domain/Windows account when granting permissions on the Taskmaster Server) must have
been granted full control for both sharing and security permissions on the Datacap folder on
the Taskmaster Server.

NOTE
For clarity, the instructions in this section use the Taskmaster APT foundation application as
the example application, and refer to it by name.

In general we recommend that, when copying a foundation or sample application in order to


change it or customize it to your business needs, you rename it (instructions for renaming are
included in the instructions titled Copy APT Application to Taskmaster Server). Renaming
allows you to:

ƒ Avoid losing your customizations when upgrading to later versions of Taskmaster


(application folders with the names of Taskmaster applications may be
overwritten)

ƒ Better identify the business function the application provides for your users

ƒ Leave the foundation and sample applications intact so that if you encounter
issues with your customized version, you can use the original application for
troubleshooting to determine whether or how the feature works in the original
application as compared to your customized version

ƒ Leave the foundation and sample applications intact so you can use them as
models when building your own rulesets and tasks

Complete Taskmaster Server Configuration


This section provides the information you need to complete the configuration of your
Taskmaster Server, including updating the datacap.xml file on the Taskmaster Server to reflect
the actual locations of those applications and setting up security on the folder containing the
newly-copied application.

Update Datacap.xml on Taskmaster Server


The datacap.xml file on the Taskmaster Server should only contain references to applications
that actually exist in the locations indicated in the file and that are being configured for use.
This procedure provides instructions for updating the file, including adding references to
additional applications that exist, deleting references to applications that do not exist in the
locations indicated in the file, or deleting references to applications that exist but have not been
configured for use.

NOTE
The Taskmaster Application Service is case-sensitive; when adding or changing entries in
the datacap.xml file, ensure the case matches the case of the UNC paths, folders and file
names.
1 Before you begin, identify the names and locations of the applications you want the
Taskmaster Application Service to be aware of.
2 Start Notepad, navigate to, and open the datacap.xml file on the Server. It contains lines
that look like this:
<datacap ver="8.0">
<app name="1040ez" ref="1040EZ"/>
<app name="Express" ref="Express"/>
<app name="Flex" ref="Flex"/>
<app name="Survey" ref="Survey"/>
<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>
<app name="MClaims" ref="MClaims"/>
<app name="AppWizard" ref="DStudio\AppWizard"/>
</datacap>

3 To delete references to applications that do not exist or have not been configured for
use, delete the corresponding <app name= lines. For example, when the only application
on the Taskmaster Server is the APT application, delete all of the lines except the line
for the APT application so your end result looks like this:
<datacap ver="8.0">
<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>
</datacap>

4 To add references to applications that exist, add a line that reflects the name of the
application and the full UNC path to the application folder. For example, when adding
a line for the NENU application, your end result looks like this:
<datacap ver="8.0">
<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 69


Installation and Configuration Guide

<app name="NENU" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\NENU"/>


</datacap>

5 Save and then close the datacap.xml file.

Run Taskmaster Client APT Application

Using Taskmaster APT


This section provides the information you need to process the sample, pre-scanned images
included with the IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture foundation APT application. The sample
images consist of single and multi-page invoices and a separator page, provided so you can run
Taskmaster Client APT “out of the box” using a “virtual scan” without having to hook up a
real scanner to the Workstation.

Overview of Taskmaster APT


Taskmaster APT is delivered with different pre-configured “jobs.” A job is a collection of
tasks to perform and rules to run that process invoices. The default shortcuts you see when
you start APT allow you to start and run various job-task combinations.
APT’s jobs include:
• Demo
• Demo-Dot Matrix
• Demo-FlexID
• Demo-Multipage TIFF
• Main Job
• Main Job-Dot Matrix
• Web Demo
• Web Demo-Dot Matrix
• Web Main
• Web Main-Dot Matrix
Note that the Main Job and Main Job-Dot Matrix must be configured for use with your specific
scanners before they appear on the list of available jobs and before you can use them.
The Demo-FlexID job is used as the example in this documentation. When running the Demo-
FlexID job, the default shortcuts you run, and the sequence in which you run them using the
Taskmaster Client APT are as follows:

This shortcut Does this


Scan Allows you to select the Demo-FlexID job, and run the VScan
(virtual scan) task to bring the sample invoice images into APT.
FlexID Allows you to assign a page type to each of the images in your
batch.

Installation and Configuration Guide

This shortcut Does this


Background Starts the Batch Profiler task that performs many image
processing functions including: identification of pages, image
cleaning (e.g. despeckling), image rotation (if necessary), full
page character recognition, and more. It also attempts to
identify the invoice by comparing it to a library of known
invoices.
Verify Starts the Verify task that displays the sample invoice images
and the data that has been recognized in the Verify window so
you can ensure the data is complete and correct. When an
invoice is not a known invoice, the Verify window allows you
to identify the fields and data on it, and to save its fingerprint so
it will be recognized the next time.
Export (or Starts the Export task that completes processing of images,
Background) saves information about the invoices, and exports field data to
XML files for input into your Accounts Payable, document
imaging, or ERP system. (Depending on the available batches
and their current statuses, clicking the Background shortcut
will run either the Batch Profiler task or the Export task.)
Upload Used by remote users (using Taskmaster Web Client) to upload
batches to the Taskmaster Server.

• Export outputs the field data to XML files. The XML files and the image files
are now ready to be input into a back-end application.
• An Export XML file has been added to the batch’s uniquely-numbered folder
found in \APT\batches.
• Export saves information about unknown invoices that were successfully
validated (creates new fingerprints) so that the next time Taskmaster APT “sees”
the same invoice, it can identify the vendor and extract the field data using a
process called Intellocate.
• If during Verify, you marked an invoice for review or rescan, or deleted an
invoice and you did not configure email notifications, the PDFs of the marked or
deleted images stay in the batch's uniquely-numbered folder in \APT\batches; the
images and information about the images are not exported. If you configured
Taskmaster APT to send email notifications when invoices are marked or

invoices.

APT Verify Window Instructions


These instructions cover situations that are likely to occur during processing of invoices.

Note
These instructions use the following terms:
• Matched/Unmatched - Taskmaster APT’s processing finds a fingerprint that it
thinks matches an invoice; this match may be correct or incorrect
• Known/Unknown - Taskmaster APT has or does not have the vendor in a
lookup database; Taskmaster APT has or does not have a fingerprint for the
invoice
Process Unknown Invoice for Known Vendor
This situation involves processing an unknown invoice for a known vendor. This can occur
when a vendor has changed the layout of their invoices so much so that APT does not identify
the invoice as belong to the vendor, or when an invoice is processed for a vendor who has just
recently been added to the lookup database.
Symptom(s)
When APT processes the unknown invoice, the Vendor Name is blank.
Instructions
Process the invoice as a unknown invoice: Enter the first few letters of the vendor’s name and
the vendor’s zip code, click Lookup Vendor, and populate the data fields using Click N Key,
Find Details, etc. and press <Alt+V> to validate, and ensure the invoice data passes all
validations. It is important to use Click N Key to populate the fields so that the data locations
on the images can be stored as part of the fingerprint.
Identify Detail Lines on Unknown Invoice
This situation involves identifying where the first line item is located or where each of the
fields in the line are located or what type of information they contain. This occurs on unknown

all of the lines in a separate window. Close the window, and press <Alt+V> to validate, and
ensure the invoice data passes all validations.
Process Multiple Unknown Invoices for Known Vendor in Single Batch
This situation involves processing multiple unknown invoices in a single batch for a known
vendor. This can occur when a vendor has changed the layout of their invoices, or when
previously unprocessed invoices are processed for a vendor who has just been added to the
lookup database.
Symptom(s)
When APT processes the first unknown invoice, the Vendor Name is blank.
Instructions
Process the invoice as a unknown invoice: Enter the first few letters of the vendor’s name and
the vendor’s zip code, click Lookup Vendor, and populate the data fields using Click N Key,
Find Details, etc. and press <Alt+V> to validate, and ensure the invoice data passes all
validations. It is important to use Click N Key to populate the fields so that the data locations
on the images can be stored as part of the fingerprint.
When the next invoice in that batch for that same vendor is displayed in the Verify window,
APT matches it to the earlier invoice that passed validation, and displays a Sticky Fingerprint
Available button above the Lookup Vendor button. Click the Sticky Fingerprint Available
button to locate and populate the fields automatically.
Handle Unknown Invoice when Vendor is Unknown
This situation involves handling an unknown invoice for an unknown vendor. This can occur
when your company is invoiced by a vendor before the vendor has been added to the lookup
database.
Symptom(s)
When APT processes the invoice, the Vendor Name is blank, and when you click Lookup
Vendor, the vendor is not listed.
Instructions
When Microsoft Outlook is installed on the Workstation and you updated the APT Settings.ini
file with real email addresses, you can do one of the following that will route the invoice to a
knowledge worker for handling:
• Mark the invoice for supervisor review - Press <F2>, enter relevant comments,
then click OK. When Microsoft Outlook is installed on the Workstation, this
invoice is not exported, rather, during the Export task, an email containing this
invoice image is sent to the email address specified by the Review= parameter
provided in the Settings.ini file.
• Delete the invoice from the batch - Press <Alt+D>. A message box is displayed,
asking you to confirm that you want to delete the document. Click Yes. When
Microsoft Outlook is installed on the Workstation, this invoice is not exported,
rather, during the Export task, an email containing this invoice image is sent to
the email address specified by the Delete= parameter provided in the Settings.ini
file.
Otherwise, when Microsoft Outlook is not installed on the Workstation, you can put the entire
batch on hold and alert a Supervisor of the problem:

Page 80 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

On the File menu, select Quit Task and confirm you want to put the batch on hold.
Associate Vendor and Fingerprint
This situation involves correcting the association between a vendor and a fingerprint, and
correcting the data when APT has matched an invoice with the wrong fingerprint. This can
occur when two vendors use nearly identical invoice formats.
Symptom(s)
When APT processes the invoice, it displays the wrong vendor and the data fields are
populated with incorrect data.
Instructions
Enter the first few letters of the vendor’s name and the vendor’s zip code, click Lookup
Vendor, and select the correct vendor. Ensure all of the data fields are populated correctly
using Click N Key, Find Details, etc. and press <Alt+V> to validate. Then click the New
Fingerprint button. It is important to use Click N Key to populate the fields so that the data
locations on the images can be stored as part of the fingerprint.
Capture Fields on Rotated Image
This situation involves processing an invoice that you rotated.
Symptom(s)
Click N Key no longer works.
Instructions
Manually key the data into the fields from the image and press <Alt+V> to validate. Even
though the invoice passes all validations, a fingerprint is not automatically created by
Taskmaster APT, and the next invoice from that vendor is treated as an unknown invoice.

Installation and Configuration Guide

Set Up Taskmaster APT to Process Your Invoice Images


You can easily test Taskmaster APT using your own invoice images. However, since APT
out-of-the-box cannot access your company's actual accounts payable or vendor database to
perform vendor lookups and validation, nor can it access your company's actual purchase order
database to match line items from your invoices to your purchase orders, the instructions in
this section allow you to simulate the vendor lookup and purchase order matching processing.
The steps to do this include:
1. Shut down all Taskmaster software
2. Back up, then delete the sample invoice images
3. Copy your images to the input folder
4. Add the vendors of those invoices to the Demo Vendor List (to simulate your
vendor lookup database)
5. Optional: Obtain purchase orders related to your invoice images and add purchase
order line item details to the simulated purchase order database
6. Run APT, and process each invoice

Shut Down Taskmaster Software


Before setting up APT to process your invoice images, we recommend that you shut down the
Taskmaster software components running on each machine. Regardless of whether all
Taskmaster components are installed on a single machine or the machine is part of a
Taskmaster network configuration, you should shut down the Taskmaster software in the
following sequence:
1 Taskmaster Client software for all applications (including Taskmaster Client,
Taskmaster Web Client, Taskmaster Client Service, Rulerunner Quattro Service,
Datacap Studio, Batch Pilot, etc.)
2 Taskmaster Web and any Taskmaster web services (RV2, WRRS, Fingerprint Service,
etc.)
3 Taskmaster Server Service

Back Up then Delete Sample Input Images


Open Windows Explorer, navigate to, and make a backup copy of the
\\Server\Datacap\APT\images\Input folder, then delete the sample images in the Input folder.

Copy Your Images to Input Folder


Copy your own invoice images to the \\Server\Datacap\APT\images\Input folder.

Add Your Vendors to the Demo Vendor List


Since APT out-of-the-box cannot access your company's actual accounts payable or vendor
database to perform vendor lookups and validation, Datacap provides a utility program that
simulates a database that contains vendor information.
This procedure provides instructions for adding your own vendors to this simulated database
so that you can process invoices from vendors other than those from the APT samples.

Page 84 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

1 Open Windows Explorer, navigate to \\Server\Datacap\APT\dco_APT and double-click


the Add Vendor Demo.exe file. The Add Demo Vendor window opens.
2 If vendor information is displayed for a vendor in the upper part of the window, click
Clear.
3 For each of your vendors, enter a Vendor Name, a Vendor Zip code, and either enter a
Vendor Number or select the Generate Random option, then click Add. The vendor is
added to the Demo Vendors list.
4 Close the Add Demo Vendor window when you have added the vendors associated with
your invoice images.

Add Your PO Line Items to POTable


Since APT out-of-the-box cannot access your company's actual purchase order database to
match line items from your invoices to your purchase orders, if Microsoft Office Access
software is available, you can simulate your purchase order database by adding entries to a
purchase order table in the default Microsoft Access APTLook database.
Use either the actual purchase orders that are related to one or more of your invoice images, or
use the data on the invoice images to create the purchase order line item entries.
This procedure provides instructions for backing up and adding purchase order line items so
that APT's POLR feature can match line items from your invoices and purchase orders.
1 Open Windows Explorer, navigate to, and make a backup copy of the
\\Server\Datacap\APT\APTLook.mdb.
2 From the Windows Start menu, select All Programs, select Microsoft Office, and select
Microsoft Office Access. The Microsoft Access main window opens.
3 On the File menu, select Open, navigate to \\Server\Datacap\APT\APTLook.mdb, select
it, and click Open. The APTLook : Database window opens.
4 Double-click POTable to open it. The POTable: Table is displayed with default data.
5 On the Edit menu, point to Go To, then select Last. The row marker moves to the last
row in the table.
6 On the Edit menu, point to Go To, then select New Record. A row is added to the table.
7 For each line item, press the Tab key to move to the next column, and enter data in each
column (purchase order number, line item quantity, line item number, description of
item, and purchase order line number).
8 Repeat the previous two steps to add the purchase order line items on which you want
APT to perform matching.
9 On the File menu, select Save, then close the POTable window, the APTLook window,
and the Microsoft Access window.

Run Taskmaster APT


Follow the instructions in the section titled Using Taskmaster APT to process the images.

APT Troubleshooting

Permission Denied: 'Load Picture' Error


This situation involves inadequate permissions granted to users and to a graphic image that is
stored in the application's dco_ folder.
Symptom(s)
The user receives a "Permission denied: 'LoadPicture' Run-Time Error" while running the
Verify task in APT or Flex.
Instructions
Depending on the permissions your organization grants users, when a user is logged onto
Windows as a Restricted User and is running the Verify task in APT (or Flex), the user may
receive a "Permission denied: ‘Load Picture’ " error message.
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to and open the application's dco_ folder (usually on
Taskmaster Server). Right-click the fprintnew.bmp file, select Properties, and click the
Security tab. Add the user and grant the user Full Control to the fprintnew.bmp file.

Changes to Pre-Existing Zone Positions Are Ignored


This situation involves an invoice on which, when processed the first time, the field zones
were not set up properly. A subsequent attempt to make changes to the existing zones is
ignored.
Symptom(s)
When APT processes an invoice from a known vendor, it "misses" data or captures the wrong
data.
Instructions
When an invoice is processed for the first time, an incorrect fingerprint for the invoice can be
created. While APT supports adding missing fields to an existing fingerprint, it does not
support making changes to existing field positions.
To correct a fingerprint with incorrectly zoned fields, do the following:
• Identify the fingerprint's unique Fingerprint ID
• Delete the fingerprint
• Recreate the fingerprint

Identify Fingerprint ID Associated with Problem Invoice


When fields on an invoice have not been zoned correctly, data from the invoice will not be
captured when the invoice is displayed in the Verify window.
To identify the Fingerprint ID associated with the problem invoice, do the following:
1 With the invoice is displayed in the Verify window, make a note of the vendor's name
(displayed on the invoice) as well as the Batch ID and document number found in the
lower right portion of the status bar.
2 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the application's Batches folder, and open the
folder that contains the batch.

Page 86 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

3 Using a text editor such as Notepad, open the Verify.xml file.


4 Locate the portion of the file associated with the Batch ID and document number.
5 Locate the TemplateID tag and the Fingerprint ID.
6 Use the Fingerprint ID to identify and delete the fingerprint using the Fingerprint
Maintenance Tool.

Start Fingerprint Maintenance Tool


On the Taskmaster Server where the application files are located, open Windows Explorer and
navigate to the Datacap\Application\dco_Application folder (for example:
Datacap\APT\dco_APT) and double-click Fingerprint Maintenance Tool.exe. The Fingerprint
Maintenance Tool window opens.
The very first time the Fingerprint Maintenance Tool is run, a message is displayed indicating
a backup directory has been created.

Delete Fingerprint
To delete a fingerprint when you know the Fingerprint ID, do the following:
1 Start the Fingerprint Maintenance Tool.
2 Click the Show Statistics button to display information about all existing fingerprints.
3 Select the ID of the fingerprint that you want to delete.
4 Click the Delete Selected button.

Recreate the Fingerprint for the Invoice


Recreate the fingerprint associated with the invoice by re-scanning the invoice and creating all
of the zones for all of the fields, including line items. Then complete the process by exporting
the batch containing the invoice.

IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Install and Configure Rulerunner Quattro

Introduction to Rulerunner Quattro


Rulerunner Quattro (Quattro) is an IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture component that runs
Datacap Studio application (RRS) tasks that are "background" tasks; that is, tasks that run
without any human interaction. Background tasks are typically vScan, recognition, image pre-
processing, validation, and export tasks.
Quattro uses virtualization to take advantage of multiprocessor systems. Each virtual
recognition machine (VRM) in a multi-threaded configuration of Quattro processes rules on a
batch of documents as if it were a standalone copy of Rulerunner on its own computer.
The ability to configure Quattro to run a single thread is included as part of the standard IBM
Datacap Taskmaster Capture licensing. Configuring Quattro to run multiple threads requires
additional licensing.
Multiple thread configurations of Quattro support simultaneous VRMs on a single
multiprocessor or multi-core equipped computer. Quattro completes your work faster by
taking full advantage of your hardware investment.
With Rulerunner Quattro you can:
• Complete your document processing work faster. Faster turn-around of documents such as
claims, contracts, tax returns and invoices improves responsiveness and shortens capture
cycle times.
• Reduce the number of physical computers dedicated to the capture process. One multi-core
computer can effectively replace and cost less than multiple single-processor computers,
thereby delivering a server-room/IT "friendly" solution.
• Reduce total cost of ownership by improving utilization of existing IT assets and IT staff
efficiency. The small hardware and software footprint of Quattro is less expensive than
alternative virtualization solutions.
Quattro Configuration Assumptions
This portion of the Installation and Configuration Guide provides the information you need in
order to install, configure, and run Taskmaster tasks using Rulerunner Quattro (Quattro) in a
IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture environment.
The instructions assume that all applications that you want Quattro to process have already
been installed, configured, and run successfully using Taskmaster Client. The instructions also
assume you have one or more separate servers (QServer) on which you will install Quattro.
Before you begin installing Rulerunner Quattro, ensure:
• You have a working IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 or later client/server
environment.
• At a minimum, ensure Taskmaster runs correctly in a client/server environment where the
application files are located on the Taskmaster Server and the application runs correctly from
a Workstation. This makes troubleshooting easier, and narrows down the sources of
potential problems.
• If you want Rulerunner Quattro to run tasks from two IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
applications, ensure you have a second working application with which you have processed
batches from start to finish successfully using Taskmaster Client.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 137


Installation and Configuration Guide

• When installing on client and server machines, ensure you have administrator access to all
machines on which IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture software is installed and to the
Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 server(s) on which you will install Rulerunner Quattro.
Overview of Quattro Installation in Client-Server Environment
This section provides an overview of the steps required to install and configure the Datacap
Quattro Control Service (DQCS) which starts and stops Rulerunner Quattro, and Rulerunner
Quattro (Quattro) on one or more servers (QServers) that are separate from the Taskmaster
Server (Server), as well as the steps required to configure Quattro to run tasks from a single or
multiple IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture applications on multiple threads.
Depending on the way you want to authenticate Rulerunner Quattro, instructions are provided
for authenticating using either Taskmaster Authentication or Windows Authentication.
Multiple Servers
When installing Quattro on more than one server, repeat the instructions for each QServer (see
Install and Configure Rulerunner Quattro on Windows 2003 Server or Install and Configure
Rulerunner Quattro on Windows 2008 Server).
Multiple Applications
When configuring Quattro to run tasks from more than one application, repeat the instructions
for setting up an application in the section titled Configure Quattro to Run Your Applications.
Multiple Workflows

Installation and Configuration Guide

Configure Rulerunner Quattro Authentication


When you use Rulerunner Quattro to run IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture tasks, each
instance of Quattro must be authenticated as a valid Taskmaster user. You can perform this
authentication using either Taskmaster Authentication or Windows Authentication.
Use Windows Authentication
Quattro can be authenticated using either Windows Authentication or Taskmaster
Authentication.
This section provides the information you need to prepare for having Quattro use Windows
Authentication. This includes:
• Create or ensure a domain exists that you can use for Taskmaster-related accounts
• Create or ensure a Taskmaster-specific Active Directory (AD) or Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP or LLLDAP) security group exists for the domain
• Create or ensure a domain/Windows account exists for each instance of Quattro and all are
part of the Taskmaster-specific AD/LDAP security group
• Configure Taskmaster Server Service to use Windows Authentication
• Add a Group (for the AD/LDAP security group) and Station IDs (for each QServer) to your
Taskmaster application
• For LLLDAP, add a User, Group, and Station ID for each instance of Quattro
Later, after installing the service, you will ensure Quattro is configured to use Windows
Authentication and grant the Quattro domain/Windows account(s) sharing and security
permissions to the appropriate Datacap folders.
Create or Ensure Domain Exists (Quattro)
When using Windows Authentication, the Rulerunner Quattro must have access to a domain
controller.
Create or ensure a domain exists in which a Taskmaster-specific Active Directory (AD) or
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP or LLLDAP) security group can be created.
Ensure you know the exact spelling of the domain, as you will need it when you configure
Taskmaster to use Windows Authentication.
Create or Ensure Security Group Exists (Quattro)
The Rulerunner Quattro domain/Windows account must be part of a Taskmaster-specific
Active Directory (AD) or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP or LLLDAP)
security group when using Windows Authentication.
Create or ensure a Taskmaster-specific Active Directory (AD) or Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol (LDAP or LLLDAP) security group is part of the domain.
Ensure you know the exact spelling of the security group, as you will need it when you
configure Taskmaster to use Windows Authentication.
Create or Ensure Quattro Account Exists
Create or ensure a domain/Windows account exists for each instance of Rulerunner Quattro.
When you are using Windows Authentication, ensure the Quattro account(s) are part of the
Taskmaster-specific AD , LDAP, or LLLDAP security group.

Installation and Configuration Guide

Configure Quattro Account and Permissions on QServer (Windows 2003)


This section provides the information you need to ensure that the domain/Windows account
used by each instance of DQCS/Quattro has the rights and permissions it needs on its host
(QServer). This includes: Providing the Quattro domain/Windows account with Administrator
privileges on its QServer, and granting that account the ability to log onto its QServer as a
service.
Add Quattro Account on QServer
If you have multiple QServers, set up a separate domain/Windows account for each QServer.
• Quattro's domain account must have administrative rights on its QServer. Add the Quattro
domain account to the QServer's Administrators group so that the account has local
administrator rights on the machine. This allows Quattro to access the Service Control
Manager to issue “stop service” requests when the Stop on Abort setting is enabled. This
also allows DQCS to access the Service Control Manager to issue scheduled stop and restart
requests.
• If your corporate policy restricts Administrators group privileges, or if your corporate policy
precludes granting administrator rights to the domain account, you must grant the account
permissions using DCOM Config.

On the QServer, in Administrative Tools > Component Services > Computers > My
Computer > DCOM Config, on the TaskMaster.RunTask Security tab, add and grant Local
Launch and Local Activation permissions to the domain account used by DQCS and
Quattro.
Grant Quattro Log On as Service Right
This procedure provides instructions on how to ensure the domain account used by an instance
of Quattro has been granted the Log On as a Service right on its QServer (this allows
Rulerunner Quattro to run as a service).

(QServer). This includes: Providing the Quattro domain/Windows account with Administrator
privileges on its QServer, and granting that account the ability to log onto the QServer as a
service.
Add Quattro Account on QServer
If you have multiple QServers, set up a separate domain/Windows account for each QServer.
• Quattro's domain account must have administrative rights on its QServer. Add the Quattro
domain account to the QServer's Administrators group so that the account has local
administrator rights on the machine. This allows Quattro to access the Service Control
Manager to issue “stop service” requests when the Stop on Abort setting is enabled. This
also allows DQCS to access the Service Control Manager to issue scheduled stop and restart
requests.

Page 158 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

• If your corporate policy restricts Administrators group privileges, or if your corporate policy
precludes granting administrator rights to the domain account, you must grant the account
permissions using DCOM Config.

Configure Quattro to Run Your Applications


This section provides the information you need to configure one or more instances of
Rulerunner Quattro to run background tasks from your own applications or workflows
(referred to here as MyApp1 and MyApp2).
This section assumes that you have:
• Working versions of your own IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture applications, and that
you have manually run all of the tasks successfully
• Configured Taskmaster authentication by following the instructions in either Use
Windows Authentication or Use Taskmaster Authentication
• Installed Quattro following the instructions in Install and Configure Datacap Rulerunner
Quattro on Windows 2003 Servers or Windows 2008 Servers (depending on operating
system) in an environment where the Workstation(s), Server, and QServer(s) are separate
machines.
In this scenario:
• Server hosts the Taskmaster Server Service, the MyApp1 and MyApp2 application files,
batch files, and databases
• One or more QServers host Quattro
• One or more Workstations host Taskmaster Client software (MyApp1, MyApp2)

IMPORTANT
Datacap's standard actions, with the exception of "virtual scan" (vscan) actions, are "thread-
safe" meaning they can be used simultaneously in multiple threads in Quattro. Actions you
have changed or developed, or actions that Datacap sells separately as Options may not be
thread-safe. Tasks containing actions that are not known to be thread-safe should be
configured to run in only one thread. Generally VBScript code is thread-safe, but external
COM objects may not be. Scripting that accesses files or databases may not be thread-safe.
If Quattro fails when running a task in multiple threads, try configuring that task on a single
thread. When a task contains both thread-safe and non-thread-safe actions, you can split the
task into multiple tasks in order to isolate the non-thread-safe action so it can be run on a
single thread.

When you contact Support for help with such issues, be sure to mention any custom or
separately-purchased (option) actions in your applications.

Determine Which Taskmaster Tasks to Process


When you are ready to set up Rulerunner Quattro to run tasks from your own applications or
workflows, you will need to determine which tasks are suitable for Quattro processing.
Quattro runs Datacap Studio (RRS) application tasks that are “background” tasks; that is,
tasks that run without any human interaction. Background tasks are typically vScan,
recognition, image pre-processing, validation, and export tasks.
Be sure to take the following recommendations into consideration when determining what
tasks Quattro is to process:

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 173


Installation and Configuration Guide

• In each instance of Quattro, enable the same number of threads as there are processors in
the QServer; for example, when Quattro is installed on a quad core server, enable all four
Quattro threads.
• When using Quattro to process vScan tasks, an application's vScan task that looks in a
particular folder for the input files should run on only one computer at a time and should
be set up to run on a single thread. VScans running in two different applications looking
in two different input folders can run simultaneously without conflict.
• When using Quattro to process Export tasks, use only one thread for Export when the
Export process does one or more of the following:
ƒ Updates field positions in the Setup DCO at runtime (includes Intellocate)
ƒ Updates a Fingerprint database
ƒ Exports to a text file or Microsoft Access DB
ƒ Exports at the field or page level
ƒ When it is not possible to predict the effect of multiple threads exporting files at
the same time to a downstream system
• Tasks containing actions that are not known to be thread-safe should be configured to run
in only one thread within a Quattro instance.
Gather Required Task Information
Before you begin setting up Quattro, gather the following information - you need this
information to successfully configure Quattro:
• Identify whether you want to use Windows Authentication or Taskmaster Authentication
to allow Quattro access to Taskmaster.
• Identify the UNC server names of your QServer(s) and your Taskmaster Server ("Server").
• Identify the number of processors available on each QServer.
• For each of your applications, obtain the full UNC path and file names of the Admin and
Engine databases.
• For each of your applications or workflows, make a list that includes the following - be
sure to copy the names of these items exactly, as they are all case-sensitive, and Quattro
will not work if the names don't match.
ƒ The full path to and folder name of the application's/workflow's folder on the
Server.
ƒ Start up the Taskmaster Client, on the Settings menu, select Workflow and make
a list that includes the Application Name and the Workflow, Job, and Task name
of each background task that you want Quattro to process.
ƒ Next, select each Task in turn, click the Setup button, and add the Task's Profile
name to the list if it is different from the Task name.
ƒ Using database client software, open the application's Admin database, open the
dco table within the Admin database, and add the dco_id name for each workflow
to your list - the dco_id is usually identical to the name of the workflow as it
appears in the Taskmaster Client Administrator window.
• Taking into consideration the recommendations mentioned above and the number of
processors available on each QServer, identify which tasks from which workflows or

Set Up Quattro Restarts
When you are running Rulerunner Quattro in a production environment, Quattro should be
restarted periodically, typically every four hours, or as determined by experience. The option
that controls this behavior is the Restart Interval option on the Rulerunner Quattro Manager's
Advanced Settings tab.
Additionally, if you have configured Quattro to Stop on Abort (on the Rulerunner Quattro
Manager's Quattro Settings tab), it is a good idea to restart it automatically. The option that
controls this behavior is the Restart Service (or Restart Service if Stopped) option on the
Advanced Settings tab.
This procedure assumes that you have encrypted the password associated with Quattro's User
ID using IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture SitManager.exe and can paste the encrypted string
during this procedure - if not, follow the instructions in Encrypt Taskmaster Login Password
before continuing with this procedure.
This procedure provides instructions on how to ensure the Quattro restart options are

Installation and Configuration Guide

Install and Configure Taskmaster Client Service


All IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture’s Windows- or browser-based software tasks can be run
manually. In addition, the Taskmaster Client Service can be configured to run tasks that do not
require human intervention (background tasks) on a separate workstation or server. Depending
on what you want to accomplish, and on your current IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
application(s) and client-server environment, running the Taskmaster Client Service on a
separate machine may offer significant processing advantages.
This section provides the information you need to set up the Taskmaster Client Service on a
separate, unattended workstation or server (referred to as the "TCSServer") to run one
application's background tasks automatically.
Optional instructions are also provided to configure the Taskmaster Client Service to use
Windows Authentication rather than standard IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
Authentication.
This section assumes that you have a working IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture client-server
environment with at least one Workstation and one Server.

Overview of Taskmaster Client Service Installation


To set up and use the Taskmaster Client Service to run background tasks, you must:
• Determine which IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture application and tasks you want the
Taskmaster Client Service to process
• Ensure you have met the prerequisites detailed in Chapter 3 Installation and Configuration
Prerequisites
• Create a domain/Windows account for the Taskmaster Client Service
• Add the Taskmaster Client Service to the Taskmaster Client application as a user and
identify which tasks the Taskmaster Client Service is to run
• Configure Taskmaster Client Service permissions on the Taskmaster Server
• Install and configure the Taskmaster Client Service on the Taskmaster Client Service
Server (TCSServer)
• Test the Taskmaster Client Service
• Leave Taskmaster Client Service running

Determine Which Datacap Application to Process


Before you set up the Taskmaster Client Service, you need to determine which IBM Datacap
Taskmaster Capture application contains background tasks suitable for Taskmaster Client
Service processing. Typically, these will be Rulerunner and export tasks, but can be any tasks
that do not require human interaction.

Create or Ensure Account Exists for Taskmaster Client Service


Create or ensure a specific domain account exists for the Taskmaster Client Service.
If you are using Windows Authentication, ensure the Taskmaster Client Service account has
been added to the appropriate IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture-specific AD/LDAP security
group or groups. For more information, see Configure Windows Authentication for
Taskmaster.

that should trigger the Taskmaster Client Service.
For example, if you have an application with Scan, PageID and Recognition tasks, and you
have set up the Taskmaster Client Service to automatically run the PageID and Recognition
tasks, running a scan job should automatically trigger the Page ID and Recognition tasks. If
results from these jobs show up in the application's Batches folder, you know you have set up
the Taskmaster Client Service correctly.

Test Taskmaster Client Service and View Processing


Another method for testing your set up of the Taskmaster Client Service allows you to start
and run the Taskmaster Client Service so that it displays processing dialogs as it processes
batches. Since only one instance of the Taskmaster Client Service can run on a machine at a
time, these instructions include stopping the service before starting it in display mode.

Install and Configure NENU

Introduction to NENU
NENU (New Enhanced Notification Utility) is a Taskmaster software component that allows
you to set up batch monitoring, status notification, and automatic deletion of completed
batches. It can monitor the status of your Taskmaster applications and:
• Identify batches that meet certain criteria (for example, batches that aborted)
• Change the status of batches or their order in the job queue
• Delete batches or move them to another location
• Send email notifications or take other actions
For example, you can use NENU to locate batches that aborted, move them to another
Taskmaster application for exception processing, and report the results to a system
administrator via email.
You can run NENU in two modes:
• Manually using NENU Manager
• Automatically at scheduled times using the Windows Task Scheduler
NENU Components
NENU includes the following components:
• A library of actions for connecting to a Taskmaster application, querying the database for
batch information, modifying information within the database, moving or deleting batches,
and sending notifications. You can use these actions in rulesets within an existing
Taskmaster application, or you can create a new application specifically for batch
monitoring. For more information, see Summary of NENU Actions.
• The NENU Manager configuration utility for creating the required settings file and
executing NENU rulesets manually. For more information, see Run a Ruleset with NENU
Manager.
Uses for NENU
Here are a few examples of things you can do using NENU:
• Notify an administrator that something has gone wrong with a background server (for
example, a Quattro server)
• Correct a problem that comes up regularly and is usually fixed by, for example, resetting a
batch from aborted to pending
• Generate data for reporting with Datacap RV2 (for example, to take a snapshot of the
number of current users)
• Delete or archive old batches that have completed processing (replaces AutoDelete)
Determine Tasks to be Performed by NENU
Before you create your NENU application, determine the tasks you want NENU to perform.

<app name="Flex" ref="Flex"/>

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 201


Installation and Configuration Guide

<app name="Survey" ref="Survey"/>


<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>
<app name="MClaims" ref="MClaims"/>
<app name="AppWizard" ref="DStudio\AppWizard"/>
</datacap>

3 To delete references to applications that do not exist or have not been configured for
use, delete the corresponding <app name= lines. For example, when the only application
on the Taskmaster Server is the APT application, delete all of the lines except the line
for the APT application so your end result looks like this:
<datacap ver="8.0">
<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>
</datacap>

4 To add references to applications that exist, add a line that reflects the name of the
application and the full UNC path to the application folder. For example, when adding
a line for the NENU application, your end result looks like this:
<datacap ver="8.0">
<app name="APT" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\APT"/>
<app name="NENU" ref="\\TASKMASTERSERVER\Datacap\NENU"/>
</datacap>

5 Save and then close the datacap.xml file.

AutoDelete Batches with NENU


Earlier versions of Taskmaster included an AutoDelete utility to automatically delete unwanted
batches. This functionality is now available through NENU.
As users process batches, the Taskmaster application’s “batches” folder can become very
large. For many applications, a batch loses much of its value after the Export task copies the
verified data to an export file or database in another location. If you wish, you can create a
NENU ruleset to periodically purge old batches from the application’s “batches” folder and
remove the corresponding records from the application’s engine database.
This section shows how to create an AutoDelete ruleset to:
• Locate batches completed within a given timeframe (for example, more than five days
ago).
• Delete those batches from the application’s “batches” folder, or move them to an archive
folder.
• Delete the records relating to the deleted batches from the application’s engine database, or
move those records to a separate archive database.
• Generate a log file documenting the results of the process.
You can then schedule the AutoDelete ruleset to run automatically on a scheduled basis (for
more information, see Configure Windows Task Scheduler to Run Ruleset Automatically
(Windows 7, Windows 2008) and Configure Windows Task Scheduler to Run Ruleset
Automatically (Windows 2003)).
AutoDelete Process
When you run a batch through the application workflow, Taskmaster does the following:
• Updates the image files, page data, etc. in the application’s “batches” folder.
• Updates the batch status information in the application’s engine database

Page 208 Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc.


IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

In order to delete old batches from the system, you must remove the information from the
“batches” folder and the engine database. Typically you will move the data to a backup
location:
• You can move the batch folders to any available local drive or network share using the
ProcessMoveBatches action. For an example, see Sample AutoDelete Ruleset.
• You must move the database information to another database with the same format as the
engine database. The easiest way to create the database is to create another Taskmaster
application. You can then move the records use the ProcessMoveDBRecords action. For
an example, see Sample AutoDelete Ruleset.
Sample AutoDelete Ruleset
The sample ruleset found below removes all batches that were completed more than five days
ago (the age is specified in seconds). It uses a separate Taskmaster application called
“BackupApp” as an archive repository for the batches and database records that are removed
from the production application (“APT” in this example).
Each of the actions in the sample AutoDelete ruleset is described in the following table. For
more information, see the section titled Summary of NENU Actions or the embedded help in
Datacap Studio.
AutoDelete

Summary of NENU Actions


NENU actions are divided into the following categories:
Category Description
Application Setup Used to obtain connections to the admin and engine databases for the
specified Taskmaster application
Query Setup Used to build the query string that is executed against the application
databases you connected to in application setup
Batch Processing Used to execute the SQL query and perform actions on the selected
database records and (optionally) the corresponding batches
Logging Used to write information to the NENU and Windows log files, and also to
send emails

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 209


Installation and Configuration Guide

Category Description
Reporting Used to write information to the report tables in the engine database for use
by Datacap RV2
Embedded help is available for all NENU actions from within Datacap Studio. To access the
embedded help, select an action in the Actions Library tab and click the information button.
Brief descriptions of the available actions are provided in the sections that follow. For detailed
information, including information about parameters, refer to the embedded help.
NENU Application Setup Actions
This table lists the application setup actions provided by NENU:
Action Description
SetApplication Specifies the name of the application used by
SetupOpenApplication.
SetUser Specifies username used by SetupOpenApplication.
SetPassword Specifies station ID used by SetupOpenApplication.
SetStation Specifies station ID used by SetupOpenApplication.
SetServer Specifies the name of the server used by SetupOpenApplication.
This is specified in the “name” attribute in the application’s
configuration file. This action is only required if the application
you are connecting to has multiple servers defined.
SetupDisconnectAll Closes the connections to all Taskmaster databases that were
opened by NENU actions. Some NENU actions close the
connection automatically after executing a query.
SetupOpenApplication Connects to an application using the information specified earlier
with SetApplication, SetUser, SetPassword, and SetStation.
SetupOpenApplicationEx Connects to the application specified by the first parameter using
the login information specified by the remaining parameters.
This provides an alternative to SetupOpenApplication.

NENU Query Setup Actions


Before you can execute a query against the application databases you must build a SQL query
string. As you execute the actions in this category, NENU appends the corresponding SQL
code to the current query string. For example, executing QuerySetStatus(“hold”) followed by
QuerySetOperator(“admin”) generates the following query string:
Select * FROM JobMonitor WHERE queue.qu_status IN ('hold') AND qstats.qs_op IN
('admin')

Action Description Table Column


Queried
QueryClear Clears the current query string.
QuerySetAge Specifies the batch age in the query queue qu_start or
string – returns batches started or qu_done
finished within the last x seconds,
or before or after a specific date.
QuerySetBranch Specifies a minimum number of queue qu_id and
child batches – returns batches with qu_parent
at least the number of children

QuerySetDateRange Specifies a date range in the query queue qu_start or
string – returns batches started or qu_done
finished within the specified date
range.
QuerySetGeneric Specifies generic attribute value – queue or qstats -any-
the first parameter specifies the
column name and second parameter
specifies the desired value.
QuerySetJobID Specifies the job ID in the query queue qu_job
string.
QuerySetOperator Specifies the operator name in the qstats qs_op
query string.
QuerySetPriority Specifies the job priority name in queue qu_priority
the query string.
QuerySetSeparator Specifies the SQL date/time
separator used in the query string
SQL query. The default value is
‘#’.
QuerySetStation Specifies the station ID in the query qstats qs_station
string.
QuerySetStatus Specifies the task status in the queue qu_status
query string.
QuerySetTaskID Specifies the task ID in the query queue qu_task
string.

NENU Batch Processing Actions


The ProcessRunSqlQuery action executes the current query string and generates a recordset
containing information about all matching batches. For example, if you build a query using
QuerySetStatus(“hold”) and your query locates one batch with status “hold,” the returned
recordset will contain the following information aggregated from the tmbatch, qstats, and
queue tables:
<rs:data xmlns:rs="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:rowset"><z:row pb_adjustdocs="0"
pb_adjustpages="0" pb_batch="20100260.001"
pb_batchdir="C:\Datacap\APT\batches\20100260.001" pb_expectdocs="0" pb_expectpgs="8"
pb_headertable=" " pb_ndocs="0" pb_needMeet="0" pb_pagefile="rrsvscan.xml" pb_pages="8"

qu_start="2010-09-17T07:35:26" qu_status="hold" qu_task="VScan" qu_tsorder="0"
xmlns:z="#RowsetSchema" /></rs:data>

The other actions in the batch processing category let you manipulate the batches identified in
the query results recordset.
Action Description
ProcessChangeBatchStatus Changes the status attribute (qs_status) for each batch in
the returned recordset. The database connection is then
closed.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 211


Installation and Configuration Guide

Action Description
ProcessChangeBatchStatusOrder Changes the status (qs_status) and order (qu_tsorder)
attributes for each batch in the returned recordset. The
database connection is then closed.
ProcessChangeBatchStatusTaskOrder Changes the status (qs_status), order (qu_tsorder), and
task (qu_task) attributes for each batch in the returned
recordset. The database connection is then closed.
ProcessClearAuditTable Deletes all records from the audit table in the application’s
admin database.
ProcessClearDebugTable Deletes all records from the debug table in the
application’s engine database.
ProcessDeleteBatches Deletes the folder specified by the batch attribute
(pb_batchdir) for each batch in the returned recordset.
ProcessMoveBatches Moves the folder specified by the batch attribute
(pb_batchdir) to a new location for each batch in the
returned recordset.
ProcessMoveDBRecords For each batch identified in the returned recordset, this
action moves the associated database records from queue,
qstats, and tmbatch to a different application database.
You can optionally delete the records from the source
database.
ProcessResetPendingOrNotify This is typically used to reset aborted batches and changes
the batch status to “pending,” but only for the maximum
number of times specified by parameter 1. For example, if
you specify ‘3,’ NENU will reset the batch status a
maximum of three times. After the third attempt it will
send an email to the specified recipient.
ProcessRunSqlQuery Executes the current query string.

NENU Logging Actions


During ruleset execution, NENU writes status messages to an internal log file as well as the
Rulerunner log file:
• The internal log file is maintained in memory and is used by the SendEmail action.
• The Rulerunner log file is located in the NENU folder beneath the application’s “batches”
folder. For example, if you have a ruleset called “NENU” in an application called
“NENU,” the log file is C:\Datacap\NENU\batches\NENU_NENU\nenu_rrs.log.
Additionally, you can use LogWriteEventLog to write messages to the Windows event log.
Action Description
LogClear Clears the internal log file (does not affect the Rulerunner
log file)
LogSendEmail Sends an e-mail with the internal log file to one or more
email recipients.
LogWriteEventLog Writes an information, warning, or error message to the
Datacap section of Windows event log.
LogWriteRecordSet Writes the returned recordset to the NENU log file (for an
example, see NENU Batch Processing Actions).
LogWriteSQLQuery Writes the current query string to the NENU log file.

<processModel …
CAUTION
There are multiple occurrences of "<system.web>" in the machine.config file. Be sure
you locate the occurrence where "<system.web>" is the only text on the line, and that
the next line starts with "<processModel".
3 Add the following information to the <processModel line so that it reflects information
for the Rulerunner domain/Windows account that you want to use:
<processModel autoConfig="true" enable="true"
userName="DOMAIN\RulerunnerAccountName"
password="RulerunnerAccountPassword"/>
4 Save the changes to machine.config and close the file.
Grant Rulerunner Access to IIS Metabase (Windows 2003)

IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Configure Windows Authentication for Taskmaster


This section provides the information you need to configure IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
to use either Windows Active Directory (AD) or any Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
(LDAP or LLLDAP) provider rather than maintaining individual users in Taskmaster itself and
using IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture authentication.
This section includes information related to your domain, IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture-
specific AD/LDAP/LLLDAP security groups, domain/Windows accounts for IBM Datacap
Taskmaster Capture users, as well as configuring Taskmaster Server Service to use Windows
Authentication, adding a IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture group to the application that has
the exact same name as the security group and domain, and updating all Taskmaster Client
icons to use Windows Authentication.
No changes are required to your Taskmaster Web Client as it always attempts to use Windows
Authentication first.
To set up Taskmaster Client Service using Windows Authentication, follow the instructions in
Configure Taskmaster Client Service.

Overview of Taskmaster Windows Authentication Processing


Taskmaster Client, Taskmaster Web Client, and Taskmaster Client Service support enterprise
management of users in groups using either native Active Directory (AD) or any Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP or LLLDAP) provider. This feature replaces the “NT
Authentication” method provided in earlier versions of Taskmaster.
Once the components of Taskmaster have been configured to use Windows Authentication and
a user logs onto Windows with a Windows ID that exists in the AD/LDAP directory, when that
same user logs onto Taskmaster, Taskmaster attempts to locate the user in the AD/LDAP
directory.
If Taskmaster locates the user in the AD/LDAP directory, it retrieves a list of all of the domain
groups that this user belongs to, and attempts to find a Taskmaster Group that matches an
AD/LDAP Group.
If authentication fails, Taskmaster presents its standard login dialog and the user can log onto
Taskmaster using Taskmaster authentication (which uses entries in the Taskmaster
Administration database for user authentication).
If a match is found, the user is authenticated and granted the permissions and privileges
defined for the matching Taskmaster Group – limited by the permissions and privileges of the
Station in use.
When the user belongs to other AD/LDAP Groups that also have corresponding Taskmaster
groups, the user is granted the Taskmaster permissions and privileges of those groups as well.

Overview of Windows Authentication Configuration Process


The procedures in this section apply to IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 7.5 or later. The
configuration process includes the following steps:
1 Create Domain, Security Groups, Domain Accounts
2 Configure Taskmaster Server Service to use Windows Authentication
3 Add IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture Group to Application

IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture

Chapter 6

Uninstall Taskmaster 8.0.1


This chapter provides the information you need to uninstall IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture
8.0.1 software components.

Overview of Taskmaster 8.0.1 Uninstall Process


The procedures in this section apply to uninstalling IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1.
Because the Taskmaster uninstall process removes only those files that the previous
Taskmaster installation process created, any files, settings, registry keys, administrative users,
web sites, process model identity changes, etc. that you altered or created in Taskmaster or that
were changed by Taskmaster processing, are not removed automatically by the uninstall
process, and will need to be removed manually.
If you will be installing a newer version of Taskmaster on the same machine in the same
location, customized applications that were untouched by the uninstall process will not be
changed by the later installation, but you must follow all applicable upgrade instructions (if
any) provided with the newer version of Taskmaster for your custom application.
The uninstall process is made up of the following steps:
• Ensure All Taskmaster Clients are Shut Down
• Ensure All Taskmaster Services are Shut Down
• Ensure Taskmaster Server Service is Shut Down
• Create Backup Folders
• Backup Custom Applications
• Backup Application Shortcuts
• Uninstall IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1
• Remove Accounts from Administrator and Backup Operator Groups
• Delete Registry Keys
• Remove Web Sites and Virtual Folders
• Reset Application Pool Process Model Identities
• Remove Process Identity from Machine.Config File
• Delete Program Shortcuts
• Delete Remaining Folders

Ensure All Taskmaster Clients are Shut Down


Before you begin uninstalling, ensure that all Taskmaster Client and Taskmaster Web Client
end users and administrators on all workstations are logged off.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 237


Installation and Configuration Guide

Also ensure that all developers have logged off and all background client processes have been
shut down, including Taskmaster Client Service, Quattro, Datacap Studio, NENU, RV2, Batch
Pilot, etc.

Ensure All Taskmaster Web Sites and Services are Shut Down
Before you begin uninstalling, ensure that you have stopped the Taskmaster Web site and any
other Taskmaster sites or web-based services (RV2, WRRS, Fingerprint Service, etc.)

Ensure Taskmaster Server Service is Shut Down


After you have ensured that no other Taskmaster software components are running, shut down
the Taskmaster Server Service.

Create Backup Folders


In Windows Explorer, navigate to a network location of your choice and create one or more
folders for storing the backup copy of your customized application folders and shortcuts.

Backup Custom Applications


This procedure provides instructions on how to make backups of folders that contain
customizations you want to keep. Repeat these instructions to make copies of every
customized application.
1 Using Windows Explorer on the Taskmaster Server, navigate to the C:\Datacap folder.
2 Copy the datacap.xml file to your backup folder.
3 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Datacap\<application name> folder.
4 Copy the <application name> folder to your backup folder.
5 If any other files associated with the custom application exist in other locations (for
example, your admin and engine databases are located on a database server), copy them
to your backup folder as well.

Backup Application Shortcuts


This procedure provides instructions on how to make backup copies of IBM Datacap
Taskmaster Capture shortcuts. Repeat these instructions to make copies of the shortcuts
associated with your customized applications.
For shortcuts located on the desktop:
1 Display your desktop, right-click the shortcut, and select Copy from the shortcut menu.
2 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to your backup folder and, if necessary, the
appropriate subfolder.
3 Right-click in the folder and select Paste Shortcut from the shortcut menu.

8.0.1 using Windows.
1 From the Windows Start menu, select Settings, select Control Panel, select
Administrative Tools, and select Programs and Features. The Programs and Features
window opens with a list of the software installed on the machine.
2 Scroll down to IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 and click Uninstall . A message
box is displayed prompting you to confirm that you want to remove the software.
3 Click Yes. Windows displays a Preparing to Install... window,
When UAC is on, the User Account Control window is displayed. Click Yes.
An IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture 8.0.1 window with a progress bar are displayed.
When the uninstall process is finished, a message box is displayed prompting you to
reboot your system.
4 Click Yes. The message box closes, and the machine reboots.

Remove Accounts from Administrator and Backup Operator Groups


A number of IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components required that domain/Windows
accounts be added to the machine's Administrator or Backup Operator Groups. Repeat this
procedure on each machine on which Taskmaster was installed.
Using Windows Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users and Groups >
Groups, remove all Taskmaster-specific accounts from the Administrators and Backup
Operators groups.

Delete Registry Keys


Every machine on which IBM Datacap Taskmaster Capture components were installed
contains Taskmaster-specific registry keys that should be deleted. Repeat this procedure on
each machine on which Taskmaster was installed.
Using Windows Regedit, delete the Datacap registry keys:
On Windows XP and Windows 2003:
• \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Datacap
On Windows 7 or Windows 2008 (64 bit):
• \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Datacap

Remove Web Sites and Virtual Folders


Machines on which Taskmaster Web, RV2, and Web Rulerunner Service (Rulerunner running
as a web service) were installed and configured, contain web sites and virtual folders that
should be deleted. Repeat this procedure on each web server machine on which Taskmaster
was installed.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 239


Installation and Configuration Guide

Using Windows Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand
the computer, expand Sites, right-click the web site or virtual folder, and select Remove from
the shortcut menu.

Reset Application Pool Process Model Identities


Windows 2008 servers on which Taskmaster Web, RV2, and Web Rulerunner Service
(Rulerunner running as a web service) were installed and configured, contain one or more
Application Pool Identities that should be deleted.
Using Windows Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand
the computer, and in the Connections pane, select Application Pools. The Application Pools
are listed in the center pane.
For each Taskmaster-specific application pool, right-click the application pool and select
Remove from the shortcut menu.
To ensure the other application pools are not using a Taskmaster account as the Process Model
Identity, select the application pool, and in the Actions pane, click Set Application Pool
Defaults. The Application Pool Defaults window opens and the account that is being used is
displayed.
To change the Process Model Identity account, click in the account field to display the browse
button. Click the browse button. The Application Pool Identity window opens. Select a
different account, then click OK to close the Application Pool Identity window, and click OK
again to close the Application Pool Defaults window.

Remove Process Identity from Machine.Config File


The machine.config file was updated on Windows 2003 servers on which Taskmaster Web,
RV2, and Web Rulerunner Service (Rulerunner running as a web service) were installed. The
Taskmaster account information should be removed from this file. Repeat this procedure on
each Windows 2003 web server on which a Taskmaster component was installed.
1 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to and use a text editor such as Notepad to open
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config
2 Locate the line containing only <system.web> and the next line starting with
<processModel … that contains information for the Taskmaster Windows account. It
will look something like this:
account<processModel autoConfig="true" enable="true"
userName="DOMAIN\TaskmasterAccountName" password="AccountPassword"/>
3 Remove the account information so the line looks like this:
account<processModel autoConfig="true"/>
4 Save the changes to machine.config and close the file.

Delete Program Shortcuts


Program shortcuts were created on every machine on which a Taskmaster component was
installed and should be deleted. Repeat this procedure on each machine on which a
Taskmaster component was installed.
Delete shortcuts located on the desktop.
Delete shortcuts located on the Start menu.

Delete Remaining Folders


This procedure provides instructions on how to locate and delete folders that were not removed
by the uninstall process.
1 Using Windows Explorer, navigate to and delete the C:\Datacap folder. If access is
denied, delete individual subfolders before deleting the C:\Datacap folder.
2 If you processed batches using the Taskmaster Web Client, a Scan Into folder was used
to temporarily hold images during scanning. If this folder was outside C:\Datacap,
navigate to and delete the folder.

Rulerunner Quattro Manager Reference

Rulerunner Quattro Manager


The Rulerunner Quattro Manager program allows you to update settings that determine how
Quattro functions, which applications, workflows, and tasks are processed by Quattro, as well
as the behavior of the Datacap Quattro Control Service that restarts Quattro. This
configuration program is installed when the Quattro software component is installed.
To start the Rulerunner Quattro Manager:
From the Windows Start menu, select Programs, select Datacap, select Taskmaster Client, and
click Rulerunner Quattro Manager. The Rulerunner Quattro Manager window opens with the
Datacap Quattro tab displayed on top.
This window is made up of the following tabs:
• Datacap Quattro tab
• Datacap Login tab
• Workflow:Job:Task tab with the Quattro Settings tab, the Advanced Settings tab and Node
Settings.
• Logging tab with the System Event Log tab, Quattro Log tab, and RRS Log tab.

Datacap Quattro Tab


This tab displays the name and current status of the Datacap Quattro Control Service, along
with Start and Stop buttons that allow you to change the status of the Control Service. When
you stop the Datacap Quattro Control Service, it stops Quattro after current processing
completes.
The Save and Close buttons are displayed on every tab:
• Use the Save button to save your changes to the Datacap Quattro Control Service and
Rulerunner Quattro settings.
• Use the Close button to close the Rulerunner Quattro window. The Close button only
closes the window; it does not start or stop either the Datacap Quattro Control Service or
the Datacap Rulerunner Quattro Service.

Datacap Login Tab


The fields on this tab are used for two different purposes:
• Identifying the authentication method to use when you want to make changes to the
Rulerunner Quattro and Datacap Quattro Control Service settings
• Identifying the authentication method Quattro uses when running Taskmaster tasks
Each time you make changes to the Quattro settings, before you exit, ensure you have set and
saved the settings that reflect the login credentials Quattro is to use the next time it's started.

Workflow:Job:Task Tab
The settings on this tab allow you to configure the applications and tasks that Quattro is to
process, as well as to set up how Quattro performs the processing. Changes you make on this
tab affect Quattro and Datacap Quattro Control Service.
This tab is organized into four panes, with the lower left pane split into two tabs. After you
have connected to the Datacap Application Service (on the Datacap login tab), additional data
is displayed in the upper panes:
• The upper left pane displays information from the Taskmaster Application Service about
the applications that are available; and, once you have connected to a specific application,
Taskmaster Server, and application database combination, additional information is
displayed about the workflows, jobs, and tasks that are available.
• The upper right pane allows you to create and configure the tasks that each Quattro thread
is to process.
• The lower left pane is split into two tabs of settings (Quattro Settings and Advanced
Settings) that define overall behavior (how Quattro and DQCS behave).
• The lower right pane displays the settings related to the node that is currently selected in
either of the upper panes.

Rulerunner Quattro Manager How To

Encrypt Taskmaster Login Password


When setting up Quattro to use Taskmaster Authentication, Quattro requires that the password
be encrypted. Additionally, you may want to temporarily use Taskmaster Authentication to
make changes to Quattro's configuration which also requires an encrypted password.
This procedure provides instructions on how to use Taskmaster's SitManager.exe to create the
encrypted password string you need.
1 On the QServer, start Windows Explorer, navigate to and open the
C:\Datacap\support\Sit folder.
2 Double-click the SitManager.exe. The Sit Manager window opens.
3 Type in the password you want to encrypt (for example, the password for Quattro's User
ID) and click Encrypt. A string is displayed in the Encrypted String field.
4 Click Test. A message box indicates the string was encrypted successfully.
5 Click OK to close the message box.
6 Highlight the encrypted string and copy it to your Windows clipboard (Ctrl+C) or to an
empty text file to save for later use.
7 Click Exit to close the Sit Manager window.

Troubleshooting Quattro
This section contains information on steps to take when troubleshooting Rulerunner Quattro.

First Things to Check


Make sure that Taskmaster 8.0.1 or later has been installed on all of the machines.
Ensure you can run a batch manually using the Taskmaster Client on a Workstation. If you
cannot manually run batches through the tasks that Quattro is to process, your application
setup needs to be corrected. Use other sections of this Installation and Configuration Guide to
review your installation and configuration of the application and to get it working.
If you are able to run a batch manually through the tasks that Quattro is to process, your
application is set up properly and you need to perform Quattro-specific troubleshooting.
Follow the instructions to View Windows Event Viewer Logs, to stop Rulerunner Quattro,
enable logging, restart Quattro, and to check the logs for errors.
If Quattro starts then stops immediately and the logs indicate Quattro can’t connect to
Taskmaster Server Service:
• If there is a firewall enabled on the Server hosting Taskmaster Server Service, ensure that
TCP/IP port 2402 has been opened.
• When using Windows Authentication, check with your System Administrator to make
sure you selected the correct Windows Authentication template.

View Event Viewer Logs on QServer


This procedure provides instructions on how to open the Event Viewer Application and
System Logs on the QServer hosting Quattro.
1 From the QServer’s Windows Start menu, select Settings, select Control Panel, select
Administrative Tools, select Event Viewer, then in the navigation pane, select
Application. Entries for individual events are displayed in the details pane.
2 Press F5 or choose Action/Refresh to ensure you are seeing all recent messages.
3 Locate the first (bottom-most) event from the latest “run” of Quattro and double-click
the entry to view the event’s properties.
If present, ignore the message about “The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source …
cannot be found…. The following information is part of the event:” The information
following this text is relevant.
The first event should say “Service Started.” Subsequent events should indicate the
individual threads have each started. There are three initialization attempts with
intervals of two, four, and eight seconds apart and errors are logged if they occur.
Any warning or error events indicate a problem, the first warning or error is typically
the most significant.
4 Select System. Entries for individual events are displayed in the details pane.
5 Double-click an entry to view the event’s properties. Messages should indicate
Rulerunner Quattro was able to log on.
Any warning or error events indicate a problem, the first warning or error is typically
the most significant.

If the Status displayed is Running, click Stop. The status will change to Stopped.
If the Status displayed is Stopped, continue with the next step.
3 Click the Datacap Login tab to display it.
4 Select the Windows Authentication option (this will work because the changes you are
making do not involve logging into Taskmaster), and click Connect. The label on the
Connect button changes to Disconnect.
5 Click the Logging tab to display it.
6 Click the System Event Log tab to display it, and move the Messaging level slider to
Info, critical and serious, then click Save.
7 Click the Quattro Log tab to display it, and move the Number of messages slider to All.
8 Ensure the Output to option is selected; change or make a note of the path in the Output
to field (this is where the logs will be created - you will need this information later).
9 Make changes to other options as desired, then click Save.
10 Click the RRS Log tab to display it, move the sliders to All for The level of detail
written to the RRS logs slider and the Severity level of messages logged, and ensure the
Batch Log option is selected. Make changes to other options as desired, then click
Save.

11 Click the Datacap Login tab to display it.


12 Click Disconnect. The button label changes to Connect.

IMPORTANT
Complete the following steps to ensure Rulerunner Quattro's authentication
credentials are set properly.
13 When using:
• Windows Authentication - Select the Windows Authentication option
• Taskmaster Authentication - Select the Taskmaster Authentication option, enter
the User ID of Quattro's domain account, the encrypted version of the password,
and the name of the QServer as the Station ID
14 Click Save.
15 Close the Rulerunner Quattro Manager window.

Start Quattro
When you start the Datacap Quattro Control Service it immediately attempts to start
Rulerunner Quattro.

IMPORTANT
When you are running Quattro on the same Workstation as the Taskmaster Client, exit from
the Taskmaster Client before starting Quattro.
This procedure provides instructions on how to start or ensure Quattro is started.
1 From the QServer's Start menu, select All Programs, select Datacap, select Taskmaster
Client, and click Rulerunner Quattro Manager.
When UAC is on, the User Account Control window opens. Click Yes.
The Rulerunner Quattro Manager window opens with the Datacap Quattro tab
displayed on top.
2 If the Datacap Quattro Control Service Status displayed is Running, skip to the last step.
If the Status displayed is Stopped, continue with the next step.
3 Click Start. The Datacap Quattro Control Service status will change to Running.
4 Close the Rulerunner Quattro Manager window.

View Quattro Processing Logs


Once you have enabled logging and restarted Rulerunner Quattro, Quattro should attempt to
process batches and will write to the logs.
This procedure provides instructions on how to view the various Quattro logs and provides
information on what to look for in the logs.
1 On the QServer, start Windows Explorer, navigate to and open the folder in which the
logs were created (the folder is defined using the Rulerunner Quattro Manager in the
Output to field on the Quattro Log tab; the default is C:\Datacap. For more information
on Rulerunner Quattro Manager, see Appendix D.
2 Using a text editor such as Notepad, open the Quattro.log and look for errors.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 323


Installation and Configuration Guide

3 Using a text editor such as Notepad, open the Quattro thread log. Look for the
messages beginning EstablishConnection. A successful log would be similar to this:
EstablishConnection: Connecting to application [APT].
EstablishConnection: GetServer returned [127.0.0.1].
EstablishConnection: Connecting to TM Server [127.0.0.1:2402].
EstablishConnection: Connecting to Admin DB
[PROVIDER=MSACCESS;DSN=C:\Datacap\APT\APTAdm.mdb;].
EstablishConnection: Connecting to Engine DB
[PROVIDER=MSACCESS;DSN=C:\Datacap\APT\APTEng.mdb;].
EstablishConnection: TM Login [admin station=1].
EstablishConnection: Login successful.

4 Error conditions can include one or more of the following:


ƒ If connecting to Taskmaster Server fails, then the Taskmaster Server Service is
not responsive or a network failure occurred.
ƒ If connecting to the application’s Admin or Engine database fails, use the
Taskmaster Application Manager to ensure the paths to the databases are correct.
ƒ If Quattro fails to log into the Taskmaster Server, do the following:
o Ensure the Rulerunner Quattro is set up properly by reviewing the Quattro-
related instructions in Install and Configure Quattro on Windows 2003
Servers or Windows 2008 Servers (depending on operating system).
o Ensure the Quattro domain account has been added to the correct AD/LDAP
group, and, in your Taskmaster application, that you have set up a matching
group with a name that ends in the complete domain name (e.g. XYZ.com,
NOT just XYZ).
5 On the Server, start Windows Explorer, navigate to and open the application’s batches
folder (default is C:\Datacap\Application\Batches).
6 Using a text editor such as Notepad, open the taskname_rrs.log (pageid_rrs.log,
recognize_rrs.log, etc.) and look for errors.
During processing, when Quattro fails to run a batch from a particular application, there
is a delay interval before the next attempt, and Quattro doubles the delay each time
from 2 to 64 seconds.

Appendix E

Fingerprint Maintenance Tool Reference


The Fingerprint Maintenance Tool (FMT) allows you to keep information about your
fingerprints synchronized in all of the places fingerprint information is stored, including your
application's Fingerprint Database and fingerprint data files.

Fingerprint Maintenance Tool Field Definitions


Backup Directory
Displays the full path to the folder that contains backup copies of the fingerprint XML files
made when fingerprints are added to an application. If this folder does not exist, it is created
when the Fingerprint Maintenance executable is started.
CCO
An X in this column indicates the CCO file associated with this fingerprint is missing from the
application's Fingerprint Directory.
Database
An X in this column indicates the entry associated with this fingerprint is missing from the
application's Fingerprint Database.
Date Added
Displays the date the fingerprint was either created in or added to this application from
another.
Document Hierarchy

FPXML
An X in this column indicates the XML file associated with this fingerprint is missing from the
Fingerprint Directory.
Hits/Month
This is an estimate of how many times per month the fingerprint will be matched. This
estimate is based on the age of the fingerprint and the number of times the fingerprint has
actually been matched to date. This is calculated by first calculating the age of the fingerprint
(in months) by the number of times it has been matched.

Copyright © 1994, 2011 Datacap Inc. Page 325


Installation and Configuration Guide

For example, if a fingerprint is one month old (30 days) and has been matched once, the
Hits/Month value is 1.0000. If the fingerprint is two months old (60 days) and has been
matched once, the Hits/Month value is 0.5000.
Last Hit
Displays the date on which the fingerprint was last matched.
TIFF
An X in this column indicates the TIF file associated with this fingerprint is missing from the
Fingerprint Directory.
Total Hits
