Authoring and Publishing |
 |
How to Create a Document
A DocPublisher document consists of document
content, document properties, access permissions
and document history. See how to:
1) Create content with MS Word or built-in
HTML editor
2) Set document properties such as Version,
Document owner, Expiry date and others
3) Specify access permissions (read and
write permissions) |
 |
How to Submit a Document for
Review and Approval
Once a
DocPublisher document has been created it can be
published immediately or submitted for
review/approval (depending on your specific
requirements).
This slideshow demonstrates how to submit a
document for review/approval and how to view
documents according to the different stages on
their way to publishing. |
 |
How to Approve or Reject a
Document
When a document has been submitted for
review/approval it can be approved and prepared
for publishing or rejected and sent back to
document owner for further editing. This
slideshow describes these actions.
|
 |
How to Publish or Withdraw a
Document
Approved documents can be published immediately
or on a pre-set date in future. Once published,
documents are available to Read-only users. This
slideshow also shows how to withdraw a document
that has been published.
|
 |
How to Create a New Revision
While a document is in a published stage, you
can create a new copy of the document and make a
new revision out of it. The new revision can go
through the approval process again if needed and
once it is published, the previous version is
automatically withdrawn and archived.
|
 |
How to Rollback to a
Previous Version
If need be, you can always roll back to any
previous version of a document. Once a previous
version of a document is published, the current
version will be withdrawn and archived, much
like in case of a new revision.

the database easier. |
