Document Parsing and Chunking for Credit Application Risk Control

What the data for this category looks like

Financial documents submitted by users form the main data sources for credit application risk control. These documents include individual or enterprise ID cards, business licenses, bank statements, tax certificates, income certificates, and similar materials. Users submit either static files once, or periodic recurring statement files. Document structure falls into two categories: structured form fields and semi-structured tables. Fields cover applicant identity information, credit limit, repayment term, transaction amount, tax amount, and similar items. Units include yuan, ten thousand yuan, date formats, and similar formats. Some documents contain table content that spans multiple pages.

Parsing must precisely match field identifiers for the fixed multi-field format of structured forms, to avoid missing or incorrectly submitting key information. Chunking must retain contextual association of single transaction records for long text and cross-page tables in semi-structured statements, and must not split complete transaction records. Parsing and chunking must implement boundary control for identity and financial sensitive fields to meet compliance requirements. The parsing process must support long processing durations and large file limits for large-volume documents submitted once.

How to set the configuration

Config ItemRecommended ValueRationale
PARSE_FILE_MAX_SIZE500 MBCredit application documents often contain multi-page statements and financial reports, with large individual document volumes
Chunk size800–1200 charactersMust retain complete context of a single transaction or single form field group, to avoid splitting key information
Custom SeparatorTransaction Date, Amount, Taxpayer Identification NumberMatches the separation logic of structured fields in credit documents, to accurately split chunk content
PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS120 secondsLarge multi-page document parsing requires longer processing time, to avoid mid-process interruptions
Enable Cross-page ParsingEnabledTables and forms in credit documents often span multiple pages, requiring merged cross-page content to ensure complete information
Sensitive Information Desensitization ConfigurationEnable ID number, bank card number desensitizationCredit documents contain large amounts of sensitive financial information, requiring compliance with data regulatory requirements

The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points 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 mistakes

  • Phenomenon: Parsing results return empty or lack transaction statements and tax detail content. Cause: Custom separators matching credit documents are not configured. Default separators cannot recognize structured fields, leading to failure to extract valid parsing content.
  • Phenomenon: Parsing tasks return timeout errors after triggering, or large statement documents cannot be loaded in version v4.8.14. Cause: The value of PARSE_FILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS is set too small, or the document volume exceeds the PARSE_FILE_MAX_SIZE limit. For versions v4.8.10 and earlier, also confirm whether container memory allocation meets parsing requirements.
  • Phenomenon: Chunked content splits a single complete transaction record or form field group. Cause: The value of Chunk size is set too small, or custom separators do not cover the context starting identifier of the transaction, leading to cross-chunk truncation of key information.

How to confirm the configuration is correctly set

  • Upload a single typical credit document (such as a personal bank statement PDF) and check the field extraction completeness of the parsing results. Verify whether core fields such as identity information and transaction amount are accurate.
  • Check the background logs of the parsing task to confirm that no timeout errors are triggered, and the document volume does not exceed the PARSE_FILE_MAX_SIZE limit.
  • Review the chunk result list to confirm that single transaction records are not split into two different chunks, and chunk lengths fall within the preset Chunk size range.
  • After enabling the sensitive information desensitization configuration, verify whether bank card numbers and ID numbers in the parsing results have been desensitized.
