Handling an exception
An Exception is where a document stops: a stage of processing failed, so there is nothing to review. It says what failed and where, and offers one way to run it again.
- The IntelieDocs module visible in your left-hand navigation.
- A document whose Status is Exception.
If IntelieDocs isn't in your navigation, your role doesn't have visibility for it — ask a workspace administrator, or see Permissions and module visibility.
Steps
Select its name in the documents list. A warning banner sits above the document, and the breadcrumb reads Document Status: Exception.
The banner gives the reason Elie reported, or An error occurred while processing this document. if it reported none. Failed Stage names where it stopped — Text extraction (OCR), Classification, Data extraction, PII analysis or Redaction rendering — with an error code beside it.
Once the cause is dealt with, select Retry Submit — the only re-run offered here. It repeats the whole pipeline. If a newer configuration version exists it opens Reprocess Document first: choose Retry with old version or Use new version.
A Reprocessing started message appears and the badge returns to Processing. An open document refreshes itself every 10 seconds until it settles.
What success looks like
- Reprocessing started appears and the badge returns to Processing.
- The warning banner is gone, and the document settles on Waiting for Review or Completed.
If something goes wrong
| Symptom | Likely cause | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| The banner only says An error occurred while processing this document. | Elie reported no reason. | Go by Failed Stage instead — see Troubleshooting. |
| No Retry Submit in the header. | The document is not in Exception. | Check Document Status: — a delivery failure offers Retry export instead. |
| Mark as Reviewed does nothing. | It is disabled, not hidden, on an Exception: a failed run left no fields to confirm. | Re-run the document first. |
| It returns to Exception with the same reason. | The file or the orchestrator configuration is the cause, not something transient. | Change what that stage needs, or Delete the document if it will never process. |
| Couldn't load version information. You can still retry with the current version. | The comparison could not be fetched. | Use new version is disabled; select Retry with old version. |
