Organising Folders, Tags & Uploads
Setting Up Your Filing Structure
Creating Folders
- Go to Documents from the main dashboard.
- Click New Folder (or right-click an existing folder → New Folder to nest it).
- Folders can be nested arbitrarily deep, similar to a normal file system.
- Set folder-level Access rules once, and everything filed inside inherits them unless overridden per-file.
Uploading Files
- Drag and drop files directly into a folder.
- Or click Upload to browse and select from your computer.
- Multiple files can be uploaded at once — each becomes its own document record.
Tags
Rather than relying only on folder location, apply Tags to a document for filtering across folders — e.g. tag every signed contract "Signed" regardless of which customer's folder it lives in, so you can find "all signed contracts" in one filter instead of opening every customer folder.
Search & Filters
The search panel filters by folder, tag, file type, owner, linked record type (e.g. only documents linked to an Invoice), and date — combine several filters to narrow down quickly in a large repository rather than browsing folder by folder.
Previewing & Editing
PDFs, images, and common office formats preview directly in the browser without downloading. Basic actions (rename, replace the file, split a multi-page PDF) are available right from the list, reducing round-trips to a separate desktop tool for small edits.
