Name

Set the Name of the Record Type here. Name it in a way that makes sense to you and your users. This name is used later for Entry selections and Search selections throughout the system so name it something that is easily identifiable.


Icon

Select an icon to use when displaying this Record Type. This icon shows on the Record page, Entry screens and Search screens.


Lookup Table

Treat this record type as a lookup table where users who have read only rights cannot search it directly from the search screen. Turn ON to show this record type's Search option only to those who have Read/Write access.


Thumbnail Category

When any document in the specified category is saved then it will be used as the new thumbnail for the record. This is perfect for Student Records or Personnel Records where you define a category named Photo and set that at the Thumbnail Category. Then any new picture of the Student/Personnel that gets saved in that Category will cause the Record thumbnail to be updated to their new photo.

Security Settings


Initial Edit Mode

Automated Settings


Perform OCR

Set to TRUE to tell the OCR system to OCR all documents after they are saved into the system. If you are self-hosting the server (i.e. not in our Cloud infrastructure) then you will need to ensure the OCR agent is configured and running properly.


Generate Renderings

The thumbnails used within the system must be generated at some point in time. Setting this to "Do not generate document renderings" will force the system to generate the thumbnails when the documents are viewed. Setting this to "Generate document renderings automatically" will generate the documents via the OCR module. If you do not have access to the OCR engine then this setting is ignored.


Auto-Purge Documents

Turn ON to force documents to be purged as they are deleted. Turn OFF (default) to leave the documents intact until an administrator manually purges them.
