Document Management
Overview of the Document Assist Module:
Document Assist acts as a repository of electronic copies of the organisation’s documentation. The Module Administrator defines the folder structure in which documents will be stored and is responsible for assigning user access to each of the folders created. Only those users whom have been given specific user access will be able to create folders and, upload, view and / or delete documents.
The high-level process flow of the Document Assist module is as follows:
-
The module administrator defines the categories (folders) of documents to be managed on the system. Once the categories and sub categories of documents have been created, the module administrator assigns user access to create categories, upload, view and / or delete documents. Each category is assigned to an Owner who is responsible for the documents uploaded to the category;
-
Users with the correct level of user access will be able to upload documents to the categories to which they have been given access;
-
Users with the correct level of user access will be able to add file notes to categories;
-
Users with the correct level of user access will be able to view documents to which they have been given access;
