Display

A completed data extraction field shows the converted value next to it.

Data extraction integer field and its converted value field.Data extraction date field and its converted value field.

You can adjust the converted date value by selecting Edit.

Note: In some cases, the data extracted from the document may not be in a valid format to be converted. For example, if DocIntel read the letter O instead of a number 0 in a date field (11.12.2o23), then it would not be converted. In this case, edit the field to the correct format.
