Scanned Form Double-Check Agent

A batch of entries that match the scanned forms, with doubtful fields resolved by a person

Scanned Form Double-Check Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Typing errors from paper forms reach the database and are found much later. This agent extracts the values from the scanned form image and compares them with what was typed in. It flags differences and fields that are unreadable. For each flagged item, it asks a person for a second look and rechecks the entry after the correction. It also checks formats such as dates and numbers against the field rules. A supervisor approves the batch before it is released. Edge case: a handwritten 1 looks like a 7, so the agent marks the field as uncertain and asks for a person's view.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A field passes when the scanned value and the typed value match and follow the field rules. Unreadable or differing fields go to a person.

  • Flag any difference between scan and entry
  • Flag fields with low reading confidence
  • Check dates and numbers against rules
  • Never decide which value is right when unsure

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Confidence level that sends a field to a person
  • Field rules
  • Batch size
  • Who confirms flagged fields

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Supervisor approves the batch

Hard limits

  • Never changes an entry without a person's confirmation
  • Never releases a batch with open flags

It stops when

  • Done: all fields match or are resolved and the batch is approved
  • Stop: scans are too poor to read

An example run

What happensIn a batch of 120 forms, the agent found 9 differences and 4 unreadable fields. One entry had a date typed 12/03 where the scan read 12/08. A person confirmed it was the 8th. After correction, the recheck passed on all but one smudged field, which the person resolved by calling the sender. The supervisor approved.
