Mapping processing fields

To pull in all of your desired processing data, use the Field Catalog to map your document fields to Relativity's processing data.

This section provides information on all system-mapped fields in Relativity, as well as the optional metadata fields available to you to map to your data.

Mapping fields

To map processing fields, perform the following steps:

Open the Fields tab.
Click New Field or Edit on an existing field.
Provide a name in the Name field. We recommend that you give the field an identical name to the one you are mapping to.
In the Object Type field, select Document. Only Relativity Document fields are eligible to map to a value in the Source field. Selecting any other object type disables the Source field.
In the Field Type field, select the type of field to set what type of data can be entered into the field.
When the Field Type is selected, you will see the menu for Field Settings and Advanced Settings appear. Click on the Advanced Settings tab.
Click Select on the Source field to display the processing fields to which the Relativity field can be mapped.
From the available processing fields, select the one to which you want to map, and click Set.
Confirm that the field you just mapped appears in the Source field, complete the remaining required fields and click Save.

Note: If the Processing application is not installed, you can still map fields as long as you have added the worker manager server to the resource pool.

Processing system field considerations

Note the following regarding processing system fields:

Processing system fields are mapped by default and cannot be modified.
Processing system fields aren't listed in the Field Catalog.

Field mapping validations

When mapping fields, you will receive an error if:

You attempt to map fields of mismatching types. For example, if you map a long text field to a date field, you will receive an error upon saving the field.
You attempt to map a fixed-length text field to a catalog field of a longer length.
You do not have Edit permissions for the Field object. This is because mapping through the Source field is considered an edit to a field. If you only have Add permissions for the Field object and not Edit, and you attempt to map a field, you will receive an error stating, “Error saving field mapping."

System-mapped processing fields

The following system-created metadata fields are always populated when data is processed.

Note: These fields are automatically mapped when you install or upgrade the Processing application from a version earlier than 9.4. They are not available for manually mapping through the Source field on the Field layout:

Processing Field Name	Field Type	Description
Container Extension	Fixed-Length Text	Document extension of the container file in which the document originated.
Container ID	Fixed-Length Text	Unique identifier of the container file in which the document originated. This is used to identify or group files that came from the same container.
Container Name	Fixed-Length Text	Name of the container file in which the document originated.
Control Number	Fixed-Length Text	The identifier of the document.
Custodian	Single Object	Custodian associated with, or assigned to, the processing set during processing.
Extracted Text	Long Text	Complete text extracted from content of electronic files or OCR data field. This field holds the hidden comments of MS Office files.
Last Published On	Date	Date on which the document was last updated via re-publish.
Level	Whole Number	Numeric value indicating how deeply nested the document is within the family. The higher the number, the deeper the document is nested.
Originating Processing Set	Single Object	The processing set in which the document was processed.
Originating Processing Data Source	Single Object	A single object field that refers to the processing data source.
Processing File ID	Fixed-Length Text	Unique identifier of the document in the processing engine database.
Processing Folder Path	Long Text	The folder structure and path to the file from the original location, which is used to generate the Relativity folder browser for your documents. This field is populated every time you process documents. See Processing folder path details for more information.
Relativity Attachment ID	Fixed-Length Text	A system field that the Short Message Viewer uses to provide enhanced support for attachments and avatars. See the Relativity Short Message Format guide for more information.
Relativity Native Time Zone Offset	Decimal	A numeric field that offsets how header dates and times appear in the viewer for processed emails. This field will be populated with the UTC offset value of the time zone chosen in the processing profile. For example, documents processed to Central Standard Time (CST), would be populated with a value of "-6" because CST is UTC-6. For more details on this field, see Relativity Native Time Zone Offset.
Time Zone Field	Single Object	Indicates which time zone is used to display dates and times on a document image.
Virtual Path	Long Text	Folder structure and path to file from the original location identified during processing. See Virtual path details for more information.

Optional processing fields

The following, optional, metadata fields can be mapped through the Field Catalog. The Field Catalog contains a list of all available fields to map regardless of discovered data.

If you are setting up Processing prior to Discovery and Publish, you have the following options available in the Source field modal:

Standard Fields—contains a collection of fields from both the Metadata Fields and Other Fields options.
Metadata Fields—contains fields extracted from the actual file or file system.
Other Fields—contains static, or Relativity system fields such as control number, processing set name, custodian, and so forth.

Please note:

You can map one processing field to multiple Document object fields.
You can only map a processing field to a Unicode-enabled field.
The following metadata fields can be mapped to similar field types in the Field Catalog. To map different field types outside of the 135 metadata fields to one another, select All Fields from the drop-down menu in the Source field modal.
Consider the following data compatible field types with valid mapping:
- You can map long text document fields to fixed-length text processing fields. However, Relativity does not support mapping fixed-length text document fields to long text processing fields.
- You can map single choice Catalog fields to destination fields of fixed-length text, long text, choice, or single object fields.
- You can map a DateTime field to a Date field if the source field is DateTime and the type of destination field is Date.

Note: When processing documents without an actual date, Relativity provides a null value for the following fields: Created Date, Created Date/Time, Created Time, Last Accessed Date, Last Accessed Date/Time, Last Accessed Time, Last Modified Date, Last Modified Date/Time, Last Modified Time, and Primary Date/Time. The null value is excluded and not represented in the filtered list.	"12/24/2015 11:59 PM"
Source Path	Long Text	The folder structure and path to the file from the original location identified during processing. For emails, this displays the subject rather than the email's entry ID. This provides you with better context of the origin of the email. Previously, the Virtual Path field displayed the entry ID with the email file name, and if you followed this virtual path, it was difficult to tell by that entry ID where the email came from. See Source path details for more information.	Reports\User\Sample.pst\Inbox\ Requested February report
Speaker Notes	Yes/No	The yes/no indicator of whether a PowerPoint file has speaker notes associated with its slides.	Yes
Subject	Long Text	The subject of the email message.	Blackmore Report - August
Suspect File Extension	Yes/No	The yes/no indicator if whether the extension of a file does not correspond to the actual type of the file. For example, XLS for a Word document.	Yes
Text Extraction Method	Single Choice	The method used to run text extraction.	Excel
Title	Long Text	The title of the file. For emails, this is the subject line. For non-emails, this is any available title.	June Scrum Notes
To	Long Text	The names, when available and email addresses of the recipients of an email message.	Capellas Michael D. [Michael.Capellas@COMPAQ.com]
To (SMTP Address)	Long Text	The full SMTP value for the recipient of an email message, for example, “bob@example.com.”	Michael.Capellas@COMPAQ.com
TrackChanges	Yes/No	The yes/no indicator of whether the track changes metadata on an Office document is set to True. This does not necessarily indicate if tracked changes were made to the document or not. On Word documents, the track changes toggle may have been set to True, changes made to the document, then set back to False. In this situation, this field will still indicate ‘No’ because it is looking only at the setting and not for the actual existence of changes even though tracked changes still exist in the document. If the same situation is applied to Excel documents, the result is slightly different. Microsoft deletes tracked changes on Excel documents when the toggle is set back to False. The returned value will also indicate ‘No’ but there is no concern about missed tracked changes as none exist. For file types that cannot contain tracked changes, such as PDFs, email, and images, this field is blank.	Yes
Track Changes	Yes/No	The yes/no indicator of whether the track changes toggle is set to True and/or there are tracked changes in the document. This field maps to the TrackedChangesCombined Invariant field. This will be Yes if either of the following are true: The Track Changes button is enabled in the document. There is actual Tracked Change content in the document.
Unprocessable	Yes/No	The yes/no value indicating if a file was able to be processed. If the file could not be processed, this field is set to Yes. Even if a file is flagged as Unprocessable, it may still be visible in the native file viewer if Oracle is able to render the file. The Unprocessable field is set to Yes on any file for which Relativity does not have an Invariant plugin that is capable of extracting text or imaging/OCRing that document type. For example, it’s not set for a corrupt file for which we cannot extract text, such as a corrupt Word document that logs an error during data extraction. Unprocessable documents do not have errors associated with them because they never reach a point at which they can register a processing error.	No

Note: Extracted Text Size in KB is also an available mappable field outside of the Field Catalog. This field was introduced in Relativity 9.4, and it indicates the size of the extracted text field in kilobytes. To map this field, you can edit the corresponding Relativity field, open the Field Catalog via the Source field, select the All Fields view, and select Extracted Text Size in KB as the Source value.

Note: You can track which passwords successfully decrypted published documents by mapping the Password field found in the All Fields view. Specifically, you can find this Password field by clicking Source on the field layout, selecting the All Fields view, and locating the source field name of Password with a field type of Long Text.

Email Store Name details

To better understanding how the Email Store Name field works, consider the following examples:

When an email comes from .pst, the .pst is listed in the Email Store Name field. When a child Word document comes from a .rar archive and is attached to the email, the Email Store Name field is blank for the Word document.
- The RAR/ZIP information for the Word documents mentioned above is found in the Container Name field.
In the following example, email 00011 comes from a .pst file named PSTContainingEmbeddedPSTInFolders.pst, which is the value for the Email Store Name field for that email. The other emails, 00011.001 and 00011.002, come from a .pst file attached to the 00011 email. This .pst file is named PSTWithEmails.pst. In this case, the Email Store Name field for those child messages is PSTWithEmails.pst, not the top-level .pst named PSTContainingEmbeddedPSTInFolders.pst.

PST email example

For an email taken from a zip folder, the Email Store Name field is blank.

Virtual path details

The virtual path is the complete folder structure and path from the original folder or file chosen for processing to the file. This path includes any containers that the file may be in and, in the case of attached or embedded items, includes the file name of the parent document.

This path does not include the name of the file itself. If a file is selected for import instead of a folder, the virtual path for that file is blank.

Virtual path example

Virtual path in Processing data source sample

The following are examples of virtual paths created from the folders, per the above images:

\Maude Lebowski\Loose Docs
\Walter Sobchak\Walter.pst\Inbox\Unimportant\Fest Junk\Walter
test.pst\My Test Box
- In the case of a container or loose file being directly selected for processing, the virtual path does not have a leading backslash.
test.pst\My Test Box\000000009B90A00DCC4229468A243C71810F71BC24002000.MSG
Revisions.doc
- This is the virtual path of a file embedded in the Revisions.doc file.

Processing folder path details

The processing folder path is the folder structure created in the folder browser of the Documents tab. Relativity creates this path by keeping any folders or container names in the virtual path and discarding any file names that a file may be attached to or embedded in.

Files without a virtual path and items embedded within them do not have a processing folder path. If a container is embedded in a loose file, the items in that container have a processing folder path that matches the name of the container.

The following are examples of virtual paths and corresponding processing folder paths.

Virtual Path	Processing Folder Path
test.pst\Inbox	test.pst\Inbox
test.pst\Inbox\000000009B90A00DCC4229468A243C71810F71BC24002000.MSG	test.pst\Inbox
test.pst\Inbox\000000009B90A00DCC4229468A243C71810F71BC24002000.MSG\Pics.zip	test.pst\Inbox\Pics.zip

Email folder path details

The email folder path is the folder path within the email container file in which an email was stored. All attachments to emails have no value for this field.

For example, an email stored in the ‘Escalations’ folder in the following image below would have a value of “Inbox\Tickets\Escalations."

Escalations folder structure

Source path details

The source path is a modified display of the virtual path. In the case of attachments to emails, any entry IDs of emails appearing in the virtual path are replaced by the subject of that email instead. In all other cases the source path value is identical to the virtual path.

For example, an attachment to an email could have the following virtual path and source path values:

Virtual Path	Source Path
Sample.pst\Inbox\000000009B90A00DCC4229468A243C71810F71BC24002000.MSG	Sample.pst\Inbox\Requested February reports

Note: This source path field is not to be confused with the Source Path field found on the Processing Data Source layout on the saved processing set.

Message ID considerations

Note the following details regarding the Message ID field:

Message ID is an identifier applied to an email by the program that created the email, such as Outlook, Eudora, and more.
Email programs can use whatever they want for a message ID, or they can leave it off entirely. The mail server is free to assign an identifier even if an email client did not.
There is no guarantee that every message ID is unique because every email client and mail server uses a different algorithm to create one.
Message ID is unique only in the fact Relativity does not know what tool generated the identifier or what algorithm generated it. In addition, Relativity cannot assume that the identifier will even exist in an email.
Relativity cannot validate the message ID because it is made up of opaque data associated with an email.
It is possible that two entirely different emails might share the same message ID.
Using the Message ID is not a reliable alternative to SHA256 deduplication. For the purposes of deduplication, we recommend that you use the Processing Duplicate Hash. If you processed the information in another tool, it is recommended that you use the Hash Algorithm you selected in that tool.

Comments considerations

There are two kinds of comments that are possible in all Office documents: metadata and inline. The following table breaks down which optional processing fields are populated by each type of comment.

Comment type	Location in file	Hidden Data value	Comments value
Metadata	Details tab of the Properties window, when you right-click on file name	Null (blank)	Contents of comments property on the file
Inline	In the body of the document	"Yes"	Null (blank)
Both	Details tab of file and body of document	"Yes"	Contents of comments property on the file

Note: There are a number of reasons why a document could contain hidden text. A returned value of Yes for the Hidden Data field does not automatically mean that the document has inline comments.

Deduped custodian and path considerations

If you run deduplication as part of your processing job, you may want to know where the documents that eventually get de-duplicated came from, the path, as well as which custodian those documents were associated with.

The DeDuped Custodians and DeDuped Paths optional fields allow you to track this information. When a document is de-duplicated, these fields are populated upon publish, or republish.

DeDuped Custodians—a multi-object field with object type Document and associated object type Entity. You should only associate this field with the Entity object. If this field is associated with any other object type, you will not be able to publish documents to your workspace.
DeDuped Paths—a long text document field that provides the location of the deduplicated document.

To use these fields, simply add them to a document view and refer to that view after your publish job has completed. You can then export the results to an Excel file, if necessary.

Deduped custodians and deduped files in document view

Note: When Relativity populates the Deduped Custodians and Deduped Paths fields during republish, it performs an overlay. Because of this, if you modify a document's identifier field in Relativity, your information could become out of sync. For this reason, we recommend that you do not modify the identifier field.
