What this category’s data looks like
Publishing industry financial report data comes from three main sources: periodic reports publicly disclosed by securities regulators, industry operation statistics released by publishing industry associations, and annual operating data officially disclosed by publishing groups. Update cycles follow quarterly (quarterly reports), semi-annual (semi-annual reports), and annual (annual reports) schedules. Some segmented categories such as textbook publishing include temporary operating data released before the semester. Most documents are structured PDFs or structured reports, with fields including revenue, net profit, copyright revenue, and published retail value. Units are typically CNY yuan or ten thousand yuan. Some public reports will also list values converted to foreign currencies.
Constraints on reference sourcing and traceability
These characteristics impose the following constraints on the reference sourcing and traceability process. Publishing industry financial report data has scattered sources and inconsistent format standardization. Reference traceability must support identification and matching across multiple source documents to avoid confusing data of the same category from different regulators or industry associations. Fixed update cycles require traceability information to be tied to the original report’s disclosure date, preventing traceability links from failing after historical references are synchronized. The high number of structured fields requires traceability to retain precise positioning details such as original document page numbers and paragraph locations. Associating only the full document does not meet requirements. The presence of temporary operating data requires additional configuration of compliance check traceability parameters, to ensure referenced content aligns with public disclosure rules.
How to configure the settings
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
reference_source_enable | Enabled | Publishing financial report analysis requires strict association with original data; traceable reference identifiers cannot be generated if this is disabled |
reference_source_type | document + metadata | Publishing financial reports require association with both the document itself and metadata such as disclosure date and report type to ensure accurate traceability |
log_source_tag_field | report_type + publish_date | Different source data for report types and disclosure times must be distinguished in MongoDB logs to meet traceability needs for industry segmented scenarios |
rag_reference_max_length | 800–1200 characters | Structured field content for publishing financial reports is lengthy; limiting this length prevents missing traceability information caused by truncated references |
reference_id_validate | Enabled | Can verify the matching relationship between reference IDs and original document hash values to avoid forged reference IDs generated by large models |
dynamic_kb_selector_enable | Enabled | Supports dynamic specification of knowledge bases corresponding to publishing groups or industries, solving the problem of no selectable values for variable references |
The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis, and it is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.
Three common configuration errors
- Phenomenon: No selectable values appear in the "Reference Variable" dropdown menu after selecting "Variable Application" in the "Knowledge Base Search" node. Cause: The
dynamic_kb_selector_enableconfiguration item is not enabled, or global variables for the corresponding knowledge base are not defined in advance in the workflow. - Phenomenon: MongoDB logs cannot distinguish financial report data from different publishing institutions or report types. Cause:
log_source_tag_fieldis not configured asreport_type + publish_date, and only the default document ID is used as the log tag. - Phenomenon: Forged reference IDs not associated with original documents appear in answers generated by large models. Cause: The
reference_id_validateconfiguration item is not enabled, and the matching relationship between reference IDs and original document hash values is not verified.
How to verify successful configuration
- Enter the "Knowledge Base Search" node of the target workflow, select the "Variable Application" option, and confirm that preconfigured global variables appear in the "Reference Variable" dropdown menu.
- View the system-generated MongoDB logs, and confirm that each log contains the
report_typeandpublish_datetag information. - Generate a financial report analysis answer, click the reference identifier in the answer, and confirm that it jumps to the corresponding paragraph position of the original document.
- Submit test financial report data, check the reference ID returned by the system, and confirm that it matches the metadata of the original document.
