Citation Source and Traceability for Special Steel Financial Report Analysis

Special steel financial report-related data mainly comes from public disclosure documents of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange

What Data for This Category Looks Like

Special steel financial report-related data mainly comes from public disclosure documents of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange, as well as industry operation briefs released by the China Special Steel Enterprise Association. Update schedules fall into two categories: annual financial reports must be disclosed by April 30 each year, semi-annual financial reports must be disclosed by August 31 each year, and industry briefs are updated monthly. Most documents are in PDF format, with structures including core product output, segmented product category sales, revenue composition, cost structure, and cash flow data. Fields include product name, output value, revenue amount. Units include ten thousand tons, hundred million yuan, and yuan per ton.

Constraints Imposed by These Characteristics on Citation Source and Traceability

The diversity of data sources requires configuring multi-source access rules to distinguish parsing logic between exchange-disclosed financial report files and industry association briefs. Differences in update schedules across data sources require configuring differentiated synchronization trigger strategies to avoid invalid incremental synchronization or missed latest data. The large number of special steel segmented product categories requires adding category filtering rules during the traceability link to avoid mixing general steel and special steel related data. Requirements for document length and field details require configuring reasonable paragraph parsing and context truncation parameters to ensure core data is fully retained without being cut off.

How to Configure Settings

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
Recall CountTop 8-12 entriesSpecial steel financial reports have many segmented fields, requiring sufficient recall to cover segmented category data while avoiding interference from redundant information
Similarity Threshold0.72-0.78Special steel industry terminology is highly professional. A threshold that is too low will introduce irrelevant data from the general steel industry, while a threshold that is too high will lose valid segmented data
PARSE_SEGMENT_LENGTH1200-1500 charactersSegmented product paragraphs in special steel financial reports fall within this range, avoiding truncation of core fields such as output and revenue
Data Source Synchronization CycleDifferentiated by data source type: quarterly for financial reports, monthly for industry briefsMatches the original disclosure schedule of special steel financial reports and industry briefs to ensure synchronization of the latest data
Citation Display FieldsDocument title, disclosure date, original core field textRetains units and segmented category labels for special steel data to facilitate traceability and verification of data accuracy
Reranked Return CountTop 5-7 entriesReduces user browsing load while retaining the most relevant special steel segmented data

The parameter values provided on this page are conventional recommendations used as a starting point for configuration. Actual values are affected by material format, data volume and business rules. Specific issues require case-by-case analysis. It is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.

Three Common Misconfigurations

  • Phenomenon: Citations returned in conversations include general steel industry data, without limiting to special steel categories. Cause: The similarity threshold is not configured, or the threshold is set too low, introducing search results from non-special steel categories.
  • Phenomenon: Search results show citations for external documents not uploaded to the current knowledge base. Cause: The search scope is not limited to the specified special steel financial report knowledge base, or the cross-knowledge base search switch is not turned off.
  • Phenomenon: Fields displayed in the citation module lack units or disclosure dates. Cause: The citation display fields are not configured to retain metadata and field labels from original documents, resulting in incomplete traceability information.

How to Confirm Proper Configuration

  • Enter the data source management page, verify that the data source synchronization cycle configuration matches the update schedule of special steel financial reports and industry briefs.
  • Launch a test query containing special steel segmented product keywords, check that returned citation sources only come from the configured special steel-related knowledge base.
  • View the citation module on the conversation interface, confirm that the displayed content includes document title, disclosure date and original data units.
  • Launch multiple tests after adjusting recall count or similarity threshold, verify that the relevance and quantity of search results meet expectations.
