How to view already created documents?

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

The Total Enterprise CRM contains a simple document management system that allows multiple versions of documents to be stored and categorized inside the system.  The documents are then available for use elsewhere in the system (for example, emailing).

 

To view list of all available contacts in CRM system, follow these easy steps:

 

Step 1: Select 'All Documents'

 

 

On ribbon, click the "Document" tab.

Under Documents group, select "All Documents".

 

Step 2: View the List

 

 

Here you can view the list of available documents in CRM system. These documents are categorized for quick access. You can see from the form above (in left pane) a hierarchical list of categories which can be defined to sort documents; however documents can also be tagged which allows them to be cross-referenced between multiple categories.

 

Below the ribbon of above screen, you can see a set of tables which contain related records (only one type of records are present in one column).  This table is called grid. On the grid you can quickly see the main details of the record and also see who created it, when it was created and the subject etc. etc.

 

Note:

If you need to edit any existing record shown in this grid – a quick double-click will launch an editor/form for editing. Click 'Save & Close' when you have done.

Tags are used as a way to classify documents in an ad-hoc way, where it may not make sense to add additional fields into the CRM System. Documents in database may be tagged to help organize them.
