Document Management (DMS)

Easify features a powerful yet very easy to use document management system (DMS).

A document management system is nothing more grandiose than a really handy way to keep your documents in a place where you can easily find them again.

If you have enabled the document management system the documents tab will be visible on orders or quotes.

Here you can see the order Documents tab, and as this order does not have any documents associated with it you see a message telling you that you can manually create a folder for this order, or simply drag documents onto the panel to create a folder and copy the documents there.

In this case we have a delivery note in PDF format located on our desktop. We drag the PDF file from the desktop into the documents tab...

As you can see the delivery note now appears in the Documents tab of the order. From here you can double click it to open it, and if you configured the DMS to use a network shared folder, any other networked Easify users will also be able to access the delivery note.

When you create a folder for an order in the DMS, either by clicking the Create folder for this order button, or by dragging files to the documents tab, a folder is created in the path specified in the document management options.

The folder for the order is named after the Order Number followed by the order comments. And is located within the customers folder. So if our DMS is set to use the Q:\ network drive for its root path, the previous example will have created the following folders:

Q:\Customers\Frank McTibbs Ltd - Trevor Rodgers - 490\100004 - New Hi-Fi System with Delivery\

This means that you don't have to use Easify to access documents that are stored in the DMS, you can simply browse to the location of the documents using Windows Explorer.

Similarly you can add documents or files to the folder using Windows Explorer or any other application, and they will appear in the Documents tab in Easify.

Note: Documents can also be stored for Customers, Purchases and Suppliers.
