The ABBYY Vantage Connector for Alteryx ships with a sample process that demonstrates how to use ABBYY Vantage tools in your workflow. It shows how to configure the Alteryx process to pass input data to Vantage tools, create a multi-file transaction, set transaction registration parameters, and process results from several documents in a single transaction. The sample process shows how one person’s Bank Statement and Personal Bill documents are processed in a single transaction. The default location of the sample process is C:\Program Files\ABBYY Vantage Connector for Alteryx\SampleWorkflow\Vantage.yxzp.

​
Package contents

The Vantage.yxzp package contains:
  • Two sample input images (BankStatement.tif and PersonalBill.tif)

  • The GetTransactionStatusMacro.yxmc macro file embedded in the main workflow
  • An Output folder to save processing results

​
Inspect the results

Once the workflow has run successfully, open the Output folder in the same directory as the workflow file. The Get Result tool creates the following:
  • A subfolder for each transaction, named after the transaction identifier
  • Two subsequent subfolders in the transaction folder for each document (named after document identifiers)
  • Result files (.json) saved to the corresponding document subfolder
You can also inspect the Parse Fields output, the data table with extracted field values. This table is available to browse in the workflow and is also saved as fields.csv in the root of the Output folder.
