80.1 Processing Log

80.1.1 Overview

The processing log records every processed invoice file with the executed tasks and their results. It is displayed in the log list of the main window (usage: see chapters 5 and 6).

80.1.2 What is stored

Per invoice, the read invoice data (number, date, seller, amounts, references, …) is stored, and per task the time, status, and result (e.g. target path, printer, recipient). This data also feeds the log search (see chapter 5.5), the log filter (see chapter 5.2), the CSV export, and the Excel report (see chapter 80.3).

Status values:

Status Meaning
Successful Task was executed
Error Task failed (details in the Message column)
No match Profile filter did not match, or the task found nothing suitable (e.g. no attachments)
Not overwritten The target file existed and the conflict behavior was set to “Cancel” (see chapter 9.3)
No invoice data The file contained no readable invoice data

80.1.3 Storage and retention

The entries are stored permanently in the application data and survive program restarts. Two dials in the program options (see chapter 40.16):

  • Retention period of log entries (days): older entries are removed at program start
  • Max. log entries displayed: limits the display in the main window (the stored data remains complete)

Menu → More → Clear log database… deletes all entries permanently (see chapter 2.2.7).
