Autofill Using Fillers

LogicalDOC allows you to automatically populate document metadata using Fillers.

Fillers analyze the content of a document and assign values such as tags, language, or template without manual input.

Autofill can be performed in different ways depending on your workflow:

• Manually, by executing a specific filler
• Using predefined autofill actions (e.g. tags, language)
• Automatically through folder policies

Apply a Filler from the Capture Tab

You can manually apply fillers to a document that is already stored in the system.
With a selected document, go to the Capture tab, select a filler from the Filler drop-down list, and save. After that, you can click Process.
The selected filler will analyze the document and update its properties accordingly.

In the example, a Tag filler is selected, but any available filler can be used depending on the desired result.
After processing, open the Properties tab to view the updated values.

Autofill from the Properties Tab

You can also trigger autofill for specific fields (tags and language) directly from the Properties tab.

Autofill Tags

With the document selected, open the Properties tab and click on the Edit tags icon next to the Tags label.

Once the Edit tags icon is clicked, a new set of tag-editing settings appears. 
With these new settings, it is possible to manually add tags or to click on the Autofill icon to automatically populate the Tags field.

At this point, you can edit the selection or finalize it by clicking Save.

Autofill Language

Autofilling the language, or autofilling it again if the presented language is incorrect, is simpler.
Go to the Properties tab and click the Autofill icon next to the Language field
The system will automatically detect and assign the document's language.

Autofill automatically through folder policies

Similarly to what happens with documents, by selecting a folder, it is possible to define a filler in the Capture tab of that folder.

This selection will automatically define the filler for every document placed in that folder.
