Document Types

To help organize a project's documentation, users create categories in the Document Categories module. Then, users come to this module, Document Type List, to create Document Types that are under the Document Categories. Both Document Categories and Document Types are placed within these different base tables:

Blog	InventoryTransaction	ProtocolDeviation	SitePassThruCost	VendorCost
Budget	Invoice	ProtocolVersion	SitePayment	VendorInvoice
EDCPage	Project	SAE	SiteVisit	VendorPayment
InventoryBatch	ProjectContact	Site	Subject
InventoryBatchTest	ProjectContactDetail	SiteBudget	SubjectVisit
InventoryDetail	ProjectCountry	SiteInventoryTransaction	SubjectVisitMonitor
InventoryShipment	ProjectEvent	SiteIssue	SubjectVisitProcedure

Documents are then added to the document type in another module. As an example, under the Project base table, a user may add a Document Category called Training Materials. Then, the user may add the Document Type called Initiation Visit Presentation. These document types are then available in other modules, such as Project Documents, where the actual documents are placed.

Select the base table first, then you can filter the records on Active, Inactive, or All as well as search for a word or string in the record. To remove all search options, click the Reset Filters button. To add a record, select the correct Base Table and click the Add New button or edit a record, click , which opens the Document Type module.

Most columns can be sorted in ascending or descending order by clicking the column heading.

Click Common Buttons for a description of the buttons found throughout the system and their uses.
