Which section of the processing profile includes the Excel text extraction method settings?

The correct answer pertains to the settings related to how Excel files are handled during the processing phase. Within the Processing Profile, the Inventory/Discovery Settings section is specifically designed to manage the extraction methods and options for various file types, including Excel.

This section is crucial because it defines how data is scanned and extracted from Excel documents, which can involve specific parameters like which worksheets to extract data from, how to treat formulas versus values, and handling any embedded objects or shapes. Proper configuration in this section ensures that the extracted data is accurate and useful for subsequent steps in the review or analysis process.

Other sections, such as Default Custodian Settings, are more focused on establishing standard parameters for custodians and their associated data, while Document Storage Settings deal with where the processed documents are stored. The Processing Workflow Settings manage the sequence of steps taken during the processing stages but do not address the specifics of text extraction from document types like Excel.
