Looking to see if what I want to do exists by some other name. I don't believe it does.
The Problem
We have one form that, depending on when it was printed, may or may not have a barcode. 80% have barcodes, the others don't. There is a value on the form that's in the same place and we control it. However we have these ones in the wild that don't have the barcode. I need to account for them - they have the same value as the text on the page, same page, same location (else I'd just use Activation Groups). These come in electronically; they're scanned via a different process and imported into OnBase. That process can't change.
Each keyword zone is tied to a specific type of recognition, which helps when it's a known type of field. As far as I can tell, there isn't a "check for barcode, if not, fall back to standard OCR" option. This means two zones, which does work. However, the text value on the form may not get the right value because the image is coming in degraded (by design), which makes the keyword possibly store two values or worse, overwrite and set it wrong.
I could create two keywords, but that feels wasteful. I could send it to Bar Code Recognition Server first but that also feels wasteful (And slows down processing a bit).
My question: is this or will this be a thing? Either "check for barcode, if not found fall back to standard OCR" or "Zone B should read only if Zone A didn't get anything" on the same form/page?
