The imported documents are created in the CRM with a subject, type = information, status = archived, and note = message text.
A message in the client (supported by the notification function) informs about imported documents. The hyperlink of the subject of the message opens the Shared documents dialog.
You can identify shared documents on the rich client via a watchlist (fixed "shared documents" node in the desktop sidebar under Ext. Documents). The node displays the number of shared (imported) documents.
You can open the Shared documents form using the hyperlink of the watchlist, or from the message. It contains the list of shared documents (type icon, subject, creation date, status), sorted in descending order by the date of import or creation in the CRM.
On the right-hand side of the mask, selected attributes (subject and comment from the message, thumbnail as a hyperlink) are shown for the selected document. You can open and view the document via the thumbnail hyperlink, and read the message text in the note field.
You can assign documents directly from the Shared Documents list or from the document form (Open in form) to another open object (project, ...) using drag-and-drop. The document status is then automatically set to “archived”. At the next refresh, the document disappears from the Shared Documents list as well as from the watchlist.
