1. A method, comprising:
- extracting data values from digital content that is generated by recognizing characters or marks from a multi-page document;
generating a single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document, wherein the single data entry form includes a data value extracted from a first page of the multi-page document and one or more data values extracted from one or more other pages of the multi-page document;
receiving an indication that one or more validation rules associated with one or more data entry form fields in the single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document has failed;
providing a human validation interface that enables an operator to validate the one or more data entry form fields associated with the single data entry form in a first display area;
receiving operator input that changes a data value associated with a first data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields, wherein the data value associated with the first data entry form field is associated with at least one other data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields; and
in response to the operator input, re-evaluating the one or more validation rules, wherein the at least one other data entry form field is no longer marked as having an error when re-evaluating the one or more validation rules.

Abstract
Techniques to validate data in document capture are disclosed. An indication is received that a validation rule associated with two or more dependent fields in a data entry form comprising data values extracted from a multi-page document has failed. Ahuman validation interface is provided that enables an operator to view the affected dependent fields and for each an associated document image portion from which a corresponding data value was extracted, including by providing automated navigation to and display of the affected dependent fields.

14. A document capture system, comprising:
-
a display device; and a processor coupled to the display device and configured to; extract data values from digital content that is generated by recognizing characters or marks from a multi-page document; generate a single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document, wherein the single data entry form includes a data value extracted from a first page of the multi-page document and one or more data values extracted from one or more other pages of the multi-page document; receive an indication that one or more validation rules associated with one or more data entry form fields in the single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document has failed; provide a human validation interface that enables an operator to validate the one or more data entry form fields associated with the single data entry form in a first display area; and receive operator input that changes a data value associated with a first data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields wherein the data value associated with the first data entry form field is associated with at least one other data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields; and in response to the operator input, re-evaluating the one or more validation rules, wherein the at least one other data entry form field is no longer marked as having an error when re-evaluating the one or more validation rules. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A computer program product to validate data, the computer program product being embodied in a tangible non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
-
extracting data values from digital content that is generated by recognizing characters or marks from a multi-page document; generating a single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document, wherein the single data entry form includes a data value extracted from a first page of the multi-page document and one or more data values extracted from one or more other pages of the multi-page document; receiving an indication that one or more validation rules associated with one or more data entry form fields in the single data entry form comprising the data values extracted from the multi-page document has failed; providing a human validation interface that enables an operator to validate the one or more data entry form fields associated with the single data entry form in a first display area; and receiving operator input that changes a data value associated with a first data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields, wherein the data value associated with the first data entry form field is associated with at least one other data entry form field of the one or more data entry form fields; and in response to the operator input, re-evaluating the one or more validation rules, wherein the at least one other data entry form field is no longer marked as having an error when re-evaluating the one or more validation rules.
