Claim One:
1. A method for establishing a sorting result for a value document while employing sensor data for the value document which are capturable or were captured by means of a value-document processing apparatus with one or a plurality of sensors, and while employing pre-specified classification parameters, comprising carrying out a pre-specified classification method wherein the sensor data and at least one of the classification parameters are used and pre-specified substeps are carried out, at least some of said substeps containing the making of a respective decision, and after carrying out the substeps a class is established as a sorting result, wherein at least when making the decisions at least one classification parameter associated with the respective decision and/or at least part of the sensor data and/or at least one substep result that was obtained upon carrying out a preceding substep is respectively employed, and wherein for the established sorting result a display device is so actuated that it shows at least a section of a graph illustrating the course of the classification method and having nodes and edges respectively connecting at least two of the nodes, wherein the nodes comprise a starting node, at least one substep node representing one of said substeps necessary for obtaining the sorting result, and at least one result node representing a possible sorting result, and wherein the edges connect the nodes in such a way that the nodes connected by said edges represent a sequence, given by the classification method, of substeps represented by the nodes, and wherein those edges are marked that form a continuous path from the starting node to the result node representing the sorting result, said path representing the course of the classification method for the sensor data, and/or wherein as edges only those edges are shown that form a continuous path from the starting node to the result node representing the sorting result, said path representing the course of the classification method for the sensor data, and/or wherein those nodes are marked that are directly connected by edges which form a continuous path from the starting node to the result node representing the sorting result, said path representing the course of the classification method for the sensor data.
