Hi,
I'm already familiar with the auto-correction of the fields' content (e.g. replace some parts, delete specific characters etc.). I do have a specific case, where my options might be limited:
I'm capturing specific strings (reference numbers) which follow the format "TRSHB-"NNNNNNNN"-"NNNN. This is the correct way of writing our reference numbers and the format is required for the following process. Our customers often write our reference-number in different ways: they ignore the "TRSHB" , the "-", put extra characters into the number (e.g. / or _) or forget letters in the "TRSHB".
For those cases, where it's obvious that there is no "real" mistake, which could be corrected by adding a string or a letter, is it possible to correct the content with flexicapture? Obviously for those strings, where whole digits are missing, there's no chance to correct the content automatically.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi Lennart,
I had similar issue, had PO Number in format NNNNN/NN.NNNNNN . Sometimes, last 6 digits could also be 4. Sometimes also there could be space between these digits. I have solved it by using regular expression, but needed some time.
Maybe you can also extract values from this string and check against the reference numbers in database.
Best regards,
Vladimir
