Dear Bhumika,

 

It is possible to implement the required functionality using a business process. In the business process you should use the “Script task” element. Using this element it is possible to read an image from the database and perform OCR with the subsequent updating of the necessary records in the system.

2. You should add a library (.dll file) to the package that you use for the development. Please find more information about it in the article by the link below:

How can I upload a folder in external library? Can i upload a zip folder ? Will that work ? 

Bhumika Bisht,

 

You can upload only *.dll files to the “external library” section. Therefore, if you upload a folder it won’t work.

 

Best regards,
