Overview

The Document Management Tab controls the settings that deal with the configuration of Document Management.


Key Concepts

Document Management is HTTP.  What this means is that documents live in the same installation folder as InFocus (<drive>:\program files\Clearview Software\InFocus\Client\Documents). When you upgrade to version 1.4.7 or greater, a Documents folder is created.  This is where all documents will reside.  All previously archived documents will need to be moved into this folder. Additionally, you will need to modify the permissions on the folder to allow Read/Write access to the folder. (See this article  or a more detailed explanation.)

Document Management Type

Use HTTP Document Management (recommended)

Note - Once you select "Use HTTP Document Management", you are unable to go back to "Legacy Document Management".

oDocument Base URL - This URL is the URL that you use to launch InFocus (typically http://server_name/infocus).
o"Verify" link - Verifies a connection with the Document Base URL.
oMax File Size (KB) - This limits the size of the documents to be uploaded.
o"Remove Legacy Document Repository Settings" link - Used after moving from the old Document Management setup to the HTTP Document Management setup. This removes the old repository settings.
