Task Recorder Screenshot

Purpose & User Intent: The tool converts Task Recorder screenshots from Dynamics 365 F&O into structured process data. It helps ERP admins, trainers, QA, and auditors capture the exact sequence of steps and inputs from visual records. By producing a machine-readable representation, teams can build knowledge bases, audit trails, and reference documentation without manual transcription.
Core Logic & Features: It applies image preprocessing, UI element detection, and action mapping to identify steps, actions, fields, and values. Required features include image input, automatic step sequencing, and export to JSON or CSV. Optional features include multi-file inputs, templates for entity mapping, and localization support for date, time, and currency formats.
Inputs & Outputs: Inputs are image files (PNG/JPG) and optional metadata; outputs are a structured step list with fields such as step_number, action, field_name, value, and timestamps. Exports follow consistent schemas consumable by documentation pipelines.
Algorithms & Calculations: The tool uses heuristic pattern recognition to locate task recorder panes, labels, and controls, orders steps by vertical position, and infers data fields from nearby labels. Confidence scores are attached to ambiguous items for review.
Error & Edge Cases: If regions are unreadable or layouts diverge, the system marks items with low confidence and suggests manual verification. Missing inputs trigger default placeholders rather than errors. External data unavailability results in export-only mode.
Industry/Region & Localization: Outputs align with enterprise ERP documentation practices and support regional date/time and currency formats. It does not connect to live systems. Assumptions & Exclusions: Screenshots are captured from standard Task Recorder layouts; the tool does not capture non-Task Recorder content or live sessions; it does not modify source images.
