Use the Document Management system to organize all your documents and files, as well as track revisions to those documents. Documents are uploaded and attached to levels already established in your Advantage Enterprise system (Office, Client, Division, Product, Campaign, Job, Job/Component) and including additional levels of AP Invoice, Desktop Object, Ad Number and Expense Reports.
When documents are uploaded, they can be identified by their file name, description, key words and/or labels. The key words entered for a document can be used to locate a specific document when using Advanced Search. Labels can be created and documents can be tagged with as many labels as needed. Multiple labels can be used to organize documents. Users can also create their own Document Types. This is an additional way to categorize documents.
Documents can also be revised by downloading the previously uploaded file. Once the document is downloaded, make the necessary changes, rename the document to exactly what the original file was named, and re-upload the document. This will append the revised document. Both versions of this document are available for review by using the View Document History function.
Documents are stored in the Document Repository. The Document Repository is a single level directory. For each document uploaded, a corresponding XML file is stored with the document (using the same ID) which contains all the details of the document. Any file can be uploaded as long as it does not exceed the designated file size in the Document Repository.
The Document Management system can store two types of documents:
File/Document - The first is an actual document of the file. An actual copied of the file is made and physically stored in the repository.
Link - The second is a link. In this case, the name of the document is stored and a pointer is added to the original file. This link may be a link to a file on the customer's network, or a link to a file on the internet.
Technical Note: The Document Repository is the location where all original and revised documents that have been uploaded through the document management system are stored. It should reside on a server that the agency defines. Each document stored receives a unique ID and matching XML file with identifying information. This information is also stored in Advantage tables for cross-reference purposes. |
