Word Object Members

The Word object in SuiteScript 2.1 includes key members for processing extracted text from documents. These members allow developers to utilize confidence levels and text strings effectively, facilitating more accurate document handling in NetSuite applications.

What Are Word Object Members?

Word object members consist of properties that provide details about text extracted from documents processed via the document capture features in SuiteScript. Two main properties are defined for this object:

Detailed Description of Properties

Confidence Property

• Word.confidence: This property returns a number between 0 and 1, reflecting the confidence level of the extracted text. For instance, a value of 0.95 implies a 95% confidence in the word's accuracy. Developers can use this property to set acceptance thresholds, filtering out lower-confidence words to minimize errors.

Text Property

• Word.text: This property fetches the actual text that has been extracted from the document. It is important for cases where precise text representation is necessary for further processing.

Error Handling

Errors can arise while processing these properties, notably:

• READ_ONLY: Triggered when attempting to set values for these properties, which are designed to be read-only.

Example Usage in SuiteScript

Here’s a syntax example illustrating how to work with Word object members in SuiteScript:

1const extractedData = documentCapture.documentToStructure({
2    file: file.load("SuiteScripts/sample_parking_application.pdf"),
3    documentType: documentCapture.DocumentType.OTHERS,
4    features: [documentCapture.Feature.TEXT_EXTRACTION]
5});
6 
7const wordToProcess = extractedData.pages[0].words[0];
8 
9if (wordToProcess.confidence > 0.9) {
10    // Accept the word
11} else {
12    // Reject the word
13}

In this example, the script checks the confidence level of the first word extracted from a document. If the confidence is over 0.9, it accepts the word; otherwise, it rejects it.

Who This Affects

This content is particularly relevant for:

• Developers who implement document processing features using SuiteScript.
• Administrators managing configurations related to document capture and text extraction processes.

Key Takeaways

• Word object members in SuiteScript 2.1 are essential for handling text extraction from documents.
• The Word.confidence property assists in establishing thresholds to ensure data accuracy.
• Developers should handle read-only properties carefully to avoid runtime errors.
