in next iteration, it says object reference not set instance of object

P.S : there are 4 files in that directory.

3 files are still left

in for each loop,
i have Digitize document,
then write line
then classifying my doc
Present Classification Station
Train Classifiers Scope
Data Extraction Scope
Create Document Validation Action
Wait For Document Validation Action And Resume
then export result

all these activity works fine in first iteration, but in next iteration bot forget the files

the error states there is something wrong with your For Each , not the DU framework pieces. Maybe try to rename Document to something else - it is a class of the DU framework…

@loginerror thank you for your reply, I tried with parallel for each, and worked perfectly with the same files.

I am facing the same issue with for each, so I tried parallel for each but getting error: The automatically determined extracted results references do not match the Document Object Model. They may have been created using a different Document Object Model.

Is it because parallel for each trying to create two DOM at same time?
Can you please help me how you resolved this issue?

I am using Parallel ForEach because I am using Action Center instead of On-Prem Validation Station, see my screenshot above.

289

I tried using Parallel For each loop with Action center validation and it worked fine for 10 document, when I tried with 50 documents I am getting “Unexpected Error” in logs.
May I know is there any limit for processing document in parallel?

How many documents you have tried in your solution?

290

My document count is very less, but you mast try to debug to drill down the main cause and even you can post your issue in forum, there are many experts who can help you just post it on right track.

291

Thank you, also how do you write extracted result in excel inside parallel foreach loop?

292

I am attaching a .xaml file for your reference you can change it as per your requirement.
Flowchart.xaml (86.9 KB)

293

Thank you, my work flow is same as well, now only problem, is if I give more than 20 documents its throwing unexpected error.

294

Hi @anto.santhosh can you provide more details about the error? A copy paste of the error details, and also a screenshot would help.

Also, what format are the 20 documents? (pdf, tiff, etc) How many pages does each of them have?

Thanks,
Alex.

295

I have made seperate post about this issue.
Please find below the details. The document is of pdf format. Each document will be between 1 to 4 pages max.

I am trying to Digitize document using OCR for more than 20 documents using parallel for each since Action center doesnt work in normal for each.
While Digitizing document I am getting Unexpected Error when documents are more, may I know what is the limitation of using ocr in parallel or this error is due to some other reason. I have tried with Uipath ocr, google, ocr, omnipage and Tesseract, all throwing same error.

Please find below the error message:

Hi Team,

Not sure if this is the right place to post the question. I have a use case to solve probably you can help.
I have folder with different types of invoices , also probably in various languages.
Now what i have to find is if two invoices are similar interms of contents. if yes then flag it which one’s are. ideally if i have 10 invoices then there is a combination of comparison which will occur to finally say which ones are similar. how can i go about it please?

thanks

Hi there,

try replacing your for each with parallel for each, it should resolve the issue.

298

Hi,
How can I find endpoints for other documents like trade licenses

299

Hi Dona,
You can find the public endpoints of the Out of the box ML models here:
[Document Understanding - Public Endpoints (uipath.com)](Document Understanding - Public Endpoints (uipath.com))
However, if the document type you are searching for is not present, you need to go for the generic ML model for document understanding and train the model with your dataset.
