Abstract
In some embodiments, a document management application determines that a field of a document lacks a tag describing the field. The document management application also determines that data entered into the field of the document corresponds to a value of a field description included in a user profile. The document management application tags or otherwise associates the field with the field description based on the entered data corresponding to the value of the field description.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- determining, by a processing device, that a field of a document accessed from a computer-readable medium lacks a tag describing the field;
- determining, by the processing device, that data entered into the field of the document corresponds to a value of a field description included in a user profile;
- and
- tagging, by a processing device, the field of the document with the field description based on the entered data corresponding to the value of the field description.
A system comprising:
- a processing device;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium communicatively coupled to the processing device,
- wherein the processing device is configured to execute instructions to perform operations comprising:
- determining that a field of a document lacks a tag describing the field,
- determining that data entered into the field of the document corresponds to a value of a field description included in a user profile, and
- tagging the field with the field description based on the entered data corresponding to the value of the field description.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having program code stored thereon, the program code comprising:
- program code for determining that data entered into a field of a document corresponds to a value of a field description included in a user profile;
- program code for tagging the field with the field description based on the entered data corresponding to the value of the field description;
- and
- program code for associating the document with the user profile.
