A batch is one upload of source data into a project. Each row becomes a task.

Batches list
The Batches tab lists every batch in the project: name, due date, priority, total tasks, completed tasks, ETA, active/inactive, and a menu (View tasks, Edit, Clone, Toggle active, View task template, Delete).
Search filters by name. Column controls show or hide columns (priority and ETA are hidden by default).

| Field | Required? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Batch name | Yes | Prefills batch-{projectId} ({today}). You can edit it. |
| Due date | Optional | Used in priority sorting. |
| Priority | Yes | High (red), Medium (yellow, default), Low (green). |
| Review sampling | Yes | Percent of the batch for QC by the review team. |
| CSV / Excel | Required if image host is on; otherwise optional | Source file. |
| Zipped image folder | Required if image host is on | ZIP of images referenced in the CSV. |
CSV / Excel
Drop a .csv or .xlsx (or click to browse). BergFlow parses it against the project template. Valid files turn green; errors name the problem (for example a missing required column).
Image ZIP (image host on)
A second drop zone appears: Select zipped image folder (required). Filenames must match the image_name column. The UI confirms name and size, for example “✓ Selected: products.zip (12.34 MB)”.

Field mapping
If CSV headers do not match template input names, an inline Field mapping panel appears. For each template input, pick a CSV column.
Required fields show *. Optional fields can be None. Content-group fields are grouped and labelled (Group: X).

Extra columns for delivery
CSV columns not in the template appear under Extra columns for delivery export. Annotators do not see them. Tick columns to store on each task so they appear in the delivery CSV.
Upload progress, cancel, errors
Create batch starts the upload.
- Text-only batches usually finish in seconds.
- Image-host batches show steps (Generating presigned URLs, then Uploading ZIP, then Creating tasks, then Processing images) and a live percent.
- Cancel upload is available during an image-host upload, with a confirm dialog.
- Failures show a red card and Try again.
Clone
Clone on a batch’s menu re-runs it after small template tweaks (for example instruction wording). A dialog asks whether to mark the original inactive.
Active, inactive, and priority
Each row has an Active toggle. Inactive batches stop serving tasks (pause without delete). Priority (High / Medium / Low) is used by the allocator for what annotators see next. Show the column from the Columns dropdown.
