Analysis statuses and results

After you run a Contracts analysis, you can monitor its progress and review results from the Contracts Analysis Set layout.

To view analysis statuses and results, you must first create and run a Contracts analysis set. For instructions, see Analysis.

To review the status of your analysis set:

  1. Navigate to the Contracts tab.
  2. Click Contracts Analysis Set.
  3. Click the name of your analysis set.

Management console

The management console on the analysis set page includes the following actions:

Action Description
Analyze Starts the analysis.
Retry Errors Reruns the analysis for documents that encountered errors. Use this as your first troubleshooting step if not all documents were analyzed.
Refresh Page Updates the page with the most current status. Click this icon instead of using your browser's refresh button.

Processing status

This section includes details about the progress of analyzed documents, status results, the last error of an analysis.

Status

The Status field displays one of the following values:

Status Description
Waiting The analysis is queued and has not yet started.
Processing The analysis is actively running.
Completed All documents have been successfully analyzed.
Completed with errors The analysis finished, but one or more documents encountered errors.
Canceled / Canceling The analysis was stopped by a user, or is in the process of being stopped.

Details

The Details field provides document-level counts for the analysis run:

Detail Description
Document(s) remaining The number of documents still in the analysis queue.
Document(s) processing The number of documents currently being analyzed.
Document(s) completed The number of documents that were successfully analyzed.
Document(s) canceled The number of documents canceled by the user.
Document(s) excluded The number of documents excluded because they are unsupported file types.
Document(s) with errors The number of documents that encountered errors and were not analyzed.

Contracts analysis document list

The Contracts Analysis document list appears at the bottom of the analysis set page and displays all documents included in the analysis. Documents are sorted by control number and display their analysis status from the most recent analysis run.

In the Job Status column, click a status to view more details. For example:

  • For excluded documents, you can see the reason for exclusion.
  • For errors, the Suggestion field and a detailed error message indicate what may have gone wrong.

Supported file types

The Supported File Types list controls which file types Contracts analyzes. PDFs and Word documents produce the best analysis results. A full list of 94 supported file types is available when you create a new Contracts analysis set.

To add file types to the supported list, click the Link button on the analysis set.

How Contracts handles file types:

  • Contracts excludes documents whose Relativity native file type is populated with a type that is not in your supported file types list.
  • If the Relativity native file type field is blank, Contracts still analyzes the document regardless of your supported file types selections.

For a complete table of supported file types, see the section below.
