The document page

For everyone: the page of one document: its header, the card Life of the document, the viewer and the tabs on the right.

A document page: header, Life of the document, the viewer and the Metadata tab

The header shows the title, the file’s kind, the state, a Personal data pill when it applies, the star that makes the document a favorite, and a line with the type, the folder, the version, the size and the date. The buttons on the right are the ones you may use: Validate, Approve, Publish, Archive or Reopen; Check out; Move. A document that a registration holds shows the line Registered as with its numbers under the header: see Registering documents. A document that was filed from a capture says “Captured through {channel} on {date}”, with the channel and the date filled in. One whose data failed a check at capture shows Not conforming at capture: see Checking the data read from forms.

The viewer shows the file page by page. Its toolbar zooms and moves between pages, and Full screen fills the window; Escape leaves it. Download saves the file. See Viewing, editing and versions.

TabWhat it holds
MetadataThe type and the values of the document, and Edit to change them. Fields the type requires are marked “required”; empty ones read “Not filled in”.
VersionsEvery saved file of the document
HistoryWhat happened to the document, newest first
AttachmentsDocuments attached to this one
CommentsRemarks by colleagues
SignaturesThe signatures and refusals of each version, and the buttons to ask for or give a signature
WorkflowsThe Keel cases and processes that hold the document
ArchiveHow long the document is kept and why, and its reception and preservation
Audit logFor people who may consult the audit log: the entries about this document

The tab Workflows is there when your institution connected the DMS to Keel. See Workflows and cases with Keel.

Press Edit, change the title, the type or the values, and press Save. A change is possible while the document is a draft or validated. Changing the type to one with a default folder can move the document there.

The Metadata tab in edit mode

Each line says what changed, who changed it and when, with the value before and after.

The History tab: state and metadata changes with Before and After

A document can have other documents attached to it, for example a contract and its annex. Attach chooses a document you may read; Detach removes the link. A document takes attachments only while it is a draft or validated.

The Attachments tab with an attached site plan

The Archive tab says why and for how long the document is kept: the nomenclator entry of its dosar, the dosar and whether it is open, the term as Kept and Term ends, how the document Entered the DMS, and the result of its reception.

The Archive tab: retention and reception of a published document

People who may consult the audit log see the entries about the document in a last tab.
