  1. Working with signatures and verifying that a document is signed is always a key part of audit procedures however given that there is a mix of wet and e-signatures it can be complicated to actually understand if your document has been validated.

    Signatures are never recognised by OCR given their "hieroglyphic" nature and therefore it is difficult for automated systems to recognise them.

    With the signature snip, users could perform multiple actions:

    • Apply an esignature to a document.
    • Verify a wet signature for IPE purposes
    • Check that an esignature is included.

  2. When multiple folders are created, these can be hard to navigate through. Maybe add the function of sorting in alphabetical order or search for folder names

  3. Allow inverse direction of work. So instead of extracting data from PDF to excel, populate a form with data from excel.

  4. When a snip is added, all prior work is "forgotten" so that undo can only undo the last snip. Any previous work can therefore not be undone.

    I lose the ability to undo the last few adjustments made as soon as I apply a snip.

    The suggestion is to allow the "undo" function to operate as standard so that all previous actions can be undone.

  5. I was using DM the other day to compare cash payments that were summarized in an Excel file to bank statements that were provided to me by the client. I didn't have any data in the Excel file other than (1) a hardcoded date and (2) the amount that I was told was paid. I was attempting to match the amount paid from the Excel file to the bank statement (which I was able to do with a very high success rate). But this also got me thinking, what if I could refine the document matching to look for certain…

  6. Set key behaviour to help more accurately get it right automatically i.e. search left or above etc, a lot of forms the key wanted its directly left or above so if this could be set then when creating extractions with a lot of fields it would speed things up tremendously

  7. Client feedback: When uploading emails into DS, the format doesn’t look very good. It’s too plain. Would be great if there's better formatting.

  10. Internal audit client feedback:

    When copying over tables with Snips in it, the reference is also copied over. And it was time consuming to remove the reference. (Client only wishes to copy the table format & functions, not the reference.)

    Currently if you paste via the right click option you can achieve a paste without the snip.

  11. Compare 2 user lists to identify changes (new users added, users removed, changes in user roles). User list files are pdf, txt, excel.

    A current solution would be to extract both lists into excel and then perform the analysis using excel functionality.

  12. When creating a working paper it would be useful to be able to create a complex working with multiple document match tests spread across tabs (and within 1 tab).
    Saving this template would then save the selected tabs so that, when the template is used, all of those tabs, formulae across tabs, and DM settings are auto created in the excel working paper.

  13. I am wondering if it would be possible to come up with a feature to help with the "cleaning" of journal entries. This could include deleting reversing entries, adding/removing accounting adjustments, deleting entries of incorrect periods, etc.

  14. It would be great if it was possible to perform sort through Excel functionality on snips inserted into Excel without messing up the DataSnipper links to the documnet.

  15. It would be nice to have the feature to remove all Files/Documents without snips not only all pages without snips. So the documents with snips stay in excel as a whole and the the documents not needed can be deleted easily

    The functionality is currently achievable via the Document Organizer. Sort all documents by snips, select documents without snips and remove.


    Upcoming UI improvements will hopefully make this even easier.

  16. Table snip creates 1 purple reference cell.
    If this table is grouped, this leads to 1 reference to potentially a large volume of data (can span multiple pages).

    In order to navigate quickly within that dataset (for quality confirmation or other reasons), this requires a manual scroll or a search. Rather including more reference options to easily find the correct location within the table.

  17. Recently, while using the program, I have noticed that it automatically searches for and retrieves snips of text from various documents. While this feature can be useful in most cases, it causes Excel crash very fast (even if imported documents are compresed). Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if the automatic data snip search could be disabled by pressing an option button, similar to the calculation options in Excel.

    My apologies, the fix made was for the auto-enter into the search box.


    The ask of this ticket to not actually search the documents in the background to save on processing power has not as yet been addressed but is planned for resolution.

  18. OCR - Punctuation standardisation - apostrophes & quote marks

    When running OCR on documents depending on font some punctuation, particularly apostrophes & quote marks, come out differently e.g. Group's vs. Group’s.

    This causes issues when using the financial statement suite & version compare features in particular as a lot false changes get flagged which muddy the waters significantly. If logic can be built in so the characters used for apostrophes & quote marks are consistent across the board that would be ideal, I think this setting would be best as the default and having an option to switch back to…

  19. Add a count of snips/result a document match will return on step 3 of document matching. Could utilize the initial population to say "Snip Count = 25/75" then user would know to adjust/remove restriction such as removal of force match on same page of document and the count would live update to "Snip Count = 50/75". This would serve a similar purpose to the Form Extraction preview that live updates with changes in extractions.

  20. It would be nice if we had the ability to slightly rotate an image by a small degree. For example, if a PDF has a poor scan of an image and lets say that image is slightly skewed, it'd be nice to rotate that image to a degree less than 90 degrees... for example, let's say, I just want to rotate the image to the left, say, 2-3% degrees so that the columns are more up-and-down rather than slightly skewed.
