An image quality assurance method for identifying image defects in a plurality of imaged documents, where each imaged document includes at least one image rendition. The image renditions are analyzed to provide selected image metrics, the latter of which are compared against preselected image quality metric threshold values. An image quality flag is generated for any image rendition if at least one of the selected image metrics for that image rendition does not successfully compare against the preselected image quality metric threshold values. A record entry is created in an image quality flag file for those documents having at least one flagged image rendition, the record entry including information about the selected image metrics of the at least one flagged image rendition for that imaged document. Image defects in a plurality of imaged documents can be identified by examining the record entries in the image quality flag file.

A method for generating a transaction-bound sequence of records in a database table is disclosed. In response to a transaction attempting to insert a record to a database table within a relational database, an identification (ID) of the transaction and the name of the associated database table are initially obtained. A determination is then made whether or not the obtained transaction ID and the associated database table name are found in the transaction-bound tracking table. If they are not found in the transaction-bound tracking table, a new entry is generated in the transaction-bound tracking table for the obtained transaction ID and database table name, and a value in a last_order_number column associated with the entry is set to 1; otherwise, a value in the last_order_number column associated with the entry is incremented by 1. The value in the last_order_number column associated with the entry is subsequently copied to the corresponding order tracking field associated with the record entry in the database table.
