Document Groups are a collection of the Documents with defined settings. Document access, document approval, watermark, front page formatting, and document footer properties are all controllable through the properties of the document group. Document groups are arranged in a hierarchical structure, and a sub-folder will inherit the properties of the parent folder, unless overwritten. Of course, these properties can be applied to individual documents, if desired.

Simple! After logging in, click on the Add Document button. Now select the file, give it a name, select the document groups you want to add it to and click on Add Document button. A PDF is automatically generated for most document types. Your document automatically inherits the security settings and properties of the document group in which it was placed.

The user Dashboard lists all the documents that are available to you, and all of the functions that can be performed on a document. On left side, you’ll find the Available Groups hierarchy. Select a group from the hierarchy to view documents inside it. You’ll see the documents of the selected group in the main panel. Additional details and available actions are conveniently located in the Document Properties Panel below it. On the lower left corner of the User Dashboard you’ll find quick links to your draft documents, documents you have checked out, and to documents that require your approval.
