Overview

To manage any document type from 1 place, whether it is visually re-organizing the table of document types and its column, or duplicating it to ease the creation of a similar document type or deleting it, you can do so in the Admin Panel's Document Types tab, as that is where all the document types on the platform can be managed from.

Deleting a document type will require that the documents associated to that type be migrated to another, existing document type.

Pre-conditions

  • System Level Permission: 'System Administration'
  • The Document Types master toggle is switched on in the Platform Configuration tab in Admin Panel.

  4. Click Duplicate.
