Enable module

Document management is an additional module that can be activated per administration.

Go to Manage / Environment / Administrations / Edit and go to the tab 'Additional modules' to enable the module for an administration.

Configure categories

Categories can be created at administration or environment level.

Categories created at administration level are only available for the administration in which they were created.

Categories created at environment level are available in all administrations.

At administration level, subcategories can be added to categories created at environment level.

  • Category Correspondence is created at environment level and therefore available for all administrations.

  • In administration X, a subcategory Correspondence / Supplier X can then be created and in administration Y subcategory Correspondence / Supplier Y.

Create categories at administration level via Management / Administration / Document management categories or at environment level via Management / Environment / Document management categories. Create categories and subcategories as shown in the video below via the 'plus' button:

At administration level, categories created at environment level are displayed in a grey frame when managing categories.

Points of attention

  • Category names must be unique at administration level.

  • If a new category is created at environment level, the name must not already be in use at administration level. For example, if a category X exists in an administration, it cannot also be created at environment level.

  • If a category is deleted, all related subcategories and documents will be deleted. A warning is displayed when deleting.

Assign permissions

Go to Manage / Environment / Users to consult the user rights. The user right Pages | Manage | Administration | Document management categories must be active to manage document categories at administration level and Pages | Manage | Environment | Document management categories for managing at environment level.

Additionally, via the user right Pages | Archive | Document management, permissions can be managed to create/edit and delete documents.

The following user rights can be configured:

  • Document management | Comments

  • Document management | Comments | Add comments

  • Document management | Comments | Delete comments (all comments)

  • Document management | Comments | Delete comments (own comments only)

  • Mobile app | Document management

Arcive

Only when the module is enabled, a tab 'Documents' is available in the archive. After a document has been processed, it can be consulted in the archive under this tab. Via the search function, you can easily search within the content of the documents; this applies only to the first one hundred pages. By default, only the documents of the current administration are shown. With the administration selection field, you can choose from which administrations documents should be displayed, making it possible to consult documents from multiple administrations. Via the 'Field chooser', additional columns can be added. Filters can be applied to various columns. Via 'Category' on the left side of the screen, it is visible how many documents are stored for a specific (sub)category; filtering is also possible here.

Add comment

Users can add comments to document management files. This can be done in the 'Edit' screen as well as in the 'View details' screen (consult via the magnifying glass).

Tag users

By typing an @ in the comment field, you can select a user to tag. In this article, you can read more about receiving notifications.

Pirces & Invoices

Consult Management / Environment / Subscription for an overview of the applicable rates. The applicable rates for processed invoices also apply to documents.
