DATASNIPPER PLATFORM

Search & Snip:

Search and Snip is a new feature speeding up your Snipping actions. This feature is very helpful to boost for example your walkthrough procedure. It is now possible to directly Snip from the search result pane, across different documents.

 

Undo snipping and deletion with CTRL Z:

It is now possible to undo your last Snip action with 'Control + Z'. You can only undo your most recent Snip. If your most recent Snip was copied from another Excel workbook, it will only undo the Snip, but the referenced document to the Snip will not be removed.

Edit rows in Table Snip:

It is now possible to edit the purple selection rows after Snipping a table. With this new feature, you are more flexible in the way your table data is extracted to your Excel workbook.

Extraction options in Form Extraction:

It is now possible to extract structured data across documents, pages and lines.

• Document: if you have e.g. 10 documents with the same structure you can extract different data across those 10 document with a single action.
• Pages: With 'page' extraction you can extract structured data across one document with multiple pages.
• Lines: With line extraction, you can extract structured data across different lines on the same page, e.g. a bank statement.

Paste snips into a different workbook with CTRL V:

It is now possible to copy Snips from one Excel workbook to another Excel workbook with 'Control + v'. DataSnipper will copy the Snip to the selected cell. The document referenced to the Snip will automatically be imported.

Paste screenshots and files into a workbook to import automatically:

It is now possible to import documents by copying files from your computer folder to DataSnipper with 'control v'.

Compress imported documents:

To improve document size management, it is now possible to compress imported files. When uploading files larger than 20mb, DataSnipper will ask to compress the file. It is also possible to compress files under the 'remove' icon in DataSnipper. On average, it will save up 40-60% in workbook size.

Learn Track:

Get value faster. The new DataSnipper Learn Track will help your organization to adopt DataSnipper. Users are able to sign-up for the learn track, on which they will receive - the most up to date - short product and use case video's directly in their mailbox. This new service is included in all current contracts.

Financial Statement Suite:

The Financial Statement Suite automatically analyzes the financial statement and helps to both perform and document all financial statement procedures extremely fast, while relying on the auditor's judgement – improving standardization and the overall quality of service. The Financial Statement Suite is a separate module and needs the DataSnipper Platform the run.

Mathematical Accuracy:

Verifying mathematical accuracy was never this easy. DataSnipper has analyzed the report for you and added suggestions of valid totals, exceptions and deviations. Simply mark them as validated or add comments.

Internal Consistency:

No need to scroll up and down to verify internal consistency. DataSnipper has automatically matched amounts to their occurrences within the financial statement.

Prior Year Consistency:

Forget about 'tabbing' between documents to verify prior year consistency. DataSnipper has automatically analysed corresponding amounts between two financial statements.

Export:

Simply export your tickmarks, findings and comments. Ready to include in your audit file. Optimized for easy client communication.

Version Comparison:

New version changes? No problem! DataSnipper has highlighted every single change between two financial statements for you.

Planning:

• 1 February 2021: Preview release

Release Highlights:

Form Extraction:

With Form Extraction, you can extract values from similarly structured documents. Snip all the values you want to extract if everything looks good in the preview table. After clicking the extract button a new sheet will be created with a snip for all values and documents.

Find all Sums:

The "Find all Sums" now includes horizontal and totals in different columns. By simply importing the documents and clicking Find all sums, DataSnipper finds all the sums from different columns.

Options for Document Matching:

With Matching options, you can add different options in your document matching by clicking the "..." button. You can set a column as required so if a field in that column is not found, the corresponding row will be left empty. You can also allow a difference up to a specified amount when matching a value.

Start by selecting the documents, the input columns, and the output columns. Then you can assign options to the desired columns.

Table snip on multiple pages:

The "Table snip" feature allows you to extract tabular data from multiple pages. Draw a rectangle around the data (excluding headers) in the PDF, so your first Table snip is created. Then click the "...", you can choose on which pages it should create addition table snips for the same positions. This is especially useful for tabular data on PDFs and it can process up to 10.000 pages.

Document overview for export, remove, and groups:

With “Document Overview” you can view all the imported documents in a single window where you can select or deselect the documents of your choice. This new overview window will automatically pop up when you want to export documents, remove documents or create groups.

Export with Snips and Comments:

While exporting documents, you can now export all the snips and comments attached to the document. Start by clicking the export button in the ribbon panel, select the documents you want to export in the Export window, and then select the “Export with snips and comments” option.

Text Recognition now supports 73 different languages

Audit Trail shows all embedded documents:

The DataSnipper worksheet always shows a complete list of all embedded documents. This allows Regulators and clients without DataSnipper to reperform all work.

Import MSG, ZIP, and TXT:

When importing files in DataSnipper, you can now select MSG files with attachments, ZIP, and any text-based format like HTML, XML, CAMT, RTF, and TXT. When choosing these files, they will be automatically converted to PDF and opened in your Document Viewer.

Usage Metrics Dashboard:

With our usage metrics tool you will be able to register and login online to a usage dashboard. This will provide key aggregated insights over: how many of each kind of snip your team are preparing, the number of documents where text recognition was performed, workbooks prepared/reviewed,  and document matching tests completed. You can view the trending of these metrics over time and display them on a monthly, quarterly or yearly basis.

This will be available mainly for administrators or implementation managers within your organisation.
