Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool
Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool is an Ephesoft add-on. It aids administrators
in achieving the goal of reducing manual data corrections. To do this, the
Reporting Tool monitors Ephesoft’s performance over time and captures
information about the correction process in order to identify where potential
bottlenecks may be. It generates detailed reporting on the performance of
Ephesoft’s document capture system to provide insight into needed adjustments
to the system’s classification, extraction rules, and thresholds. As a result the
system can be fine-tuned for maximum performance and increased ROI.

Installation
Prerequisites
The Reporting Tool currently utilizes a MySQL or Microsoft SQL Server database
and runs on Tomcat. For certain installation steps, be sure to follow only the
instructions for the type of database you will be using (MySQL or Microsoft SQL
Server). In order to minimize impact on the Ephesoft instance that is being used,
it is recommended to not deploy the Reporting Tool on the Ephesoft Tomcat
server. It is also recommended to create a separate database instance as well.
If installing from a .zip file, be sure that file has been unzipped and
contains the Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool’s User Guide, this Ephesoft
Advanced Reporting Tool Installation Guide and the Database, Properties and
War directories.
If downloading these files from the Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool
Alfresco site, the Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool User Guide and this
Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool Installation Guide can be found in the 'User
Guides' directory. The Database, Properties and War directories can be found in
the 'Installation Package' directory. Be sure to choose the 'MySQL Scripts' or 'MS
SQL Server Scripts' sub-directory in the Database and Properties directories,
depending on which database you are using.
Installation
1. Create the batch_class_reporting database:
a. Run the create_db.sql and create_db_objects.sql scripts, found in
the ‘Database’ directory of the installation package. From this
directory, run the following 2 commands (where PASSWORD is the
root user's password):
a.i. If using MySQL:
a.i.1.
‘mysql –uroot –pPASSWORD < create_db.sql’
a.i.2.
‘mysql –uroot –pPASSWORD
batch_class_reporting < create_db_objects.sql’
a.ii. If using Microsoft SQL Server:
a.ii.1.
‘sqlcmd -U USERNAME -P PASSWORD -i
create_datebase.sql’
a.ii.2.
‘sqlcmd -U USERNAME -P PASSWORD -i
create_database_objects.sql’
2. Shut down Tomcat.
3. Place the properties files in the Tomcat classpath:
a. Place these files batch-class-analysis.properties, favicon.ico,
column_header_config.properties, filter.properties, log4j.properties,
and users.properties, found in the ‘Properties’ directory in the
installation package, in the TOMCAT_HOME/lib directory.
4
a.i. If you are using MySQL, also add the
mysql_queries.properties file to the TOMCAT_HOME/lib
directory.
a.ii. If you are using Microsoft SQL Server, add the
sqlserver_queries.properties file to the TOMCAT_HOME/lib
directory.
b. The configurable files will be further described in the next sections
of this documentation.
4. Place the Reporting Tool war file, found in the ‘War’ directory of the
installation package, in TOMCAT_HOME/webapps.
5. Start Tomcat.
Configuration
Ephesoft Report Data Location
The report data location for Ephesoft is set in the batch-class-analysis.properties
file. Simply point the ephesoft.report.data.dir property to Ephesoft's reportdata directory. The default value for this is:
ephesoft.report.data.dir=c:/Ephesoft/SharedFolders/report-data
Database Connectivity
Database connectivity is configured in the batch-class-analysis.properties file.
The Ephesoft and Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool databases should be
separate in order to reduce load on Ephesoft. The ephesoft.jdbc.url points to
the Ephesoft database, while the bca.jdbc.url should point to the database
created in the installation steps above. Provide a username and password for
each database connection.
File Patterns of the End State XML Files
The file patterns for the end state .xml files can be configured in the batch-classanalysis.properties file. These .xml files are created by Ephesoft and by default
can be found in Ephesoft/SharedFolders/report-data/<BATCH_INSTANCE>/.
The batch-class-analysis.properties file contains regular expressions that need to
correspond with particular .xml files created by Ephesoft. If using a custom
configuration of Ephesoft, these regular expressions may need to be changed
accordingly.
The default values are:
bca.final.end.state.pattern=Export_Module_Scripting_Plugin_batch_bak
bca.extraction.end.state.pattern=Extraction_Module_Scripting_Plugin_batch_bak
bca.pre.review.end.state.pattern=Document_Assembler_Module_Scripting_Plugin_batch_
bak
5
Users
The users.properties file contains the username and password information for the
Reporting Tool users. To configure users, simply set the number of users, and
provide a user.N and pass.N for each user.
This property-driven authentication will be replaced by LDAP/Active Directory
integration in a future release.
Custom Column Headers
The column_header_config.properties file provides a way to customize column
names within the Reporting Tool reports. If the administrator would prefer to see
“Document Correction Count” over ‘document corrections,” he or she would build
the following String in the properties file:
table.1.document\ corrections=Document Correction Count
where ‘1’ refers to the Correction Report, ‘document\ corrections’ refers to the
original name of the column, and ‘Document Correction Count’ is the preferred
alternative. Property keys require that all spaces/whitespaces are escaped.
Values do not need to be escaped.
Each report corresponds to a number:
Documents Processed Report - 1
Correction Report - 2
Document Correction Report - 3
Classification Correction Report - 4
Separation Correction Report - 5
Unnecessary Review Report - 6
False Positive Report - 7
Field Corrections Report - 8
Field Correction Detail Report - 9
Page Correction Report - 10
Batch Report – 11
To replace a column named external_batch_instance_id in the Field Correction
Detail report with the column name “Batch ID,” one would add the following line
to the column_header_config.properties file:
table.8.external_batch_instance_id=Batch ID
Using these customizations, it is possible to modify all headers on all reports in
order to best meet business needs.
6
Document and Field Filters
The filter.properties file allows the administrator to exclude both Document Types
and Field Names from the Ephesoft Advanced Reporting Tool. These Field
Names and Document Types can simply be entered as a comma separated list
after the field.name.filter and doc.type.filter keys.
