Creating Document Link

 

Docsvault allows you to place related documents together that would not be stored in the same folder.  This allows users to quickly organize documents into logical groups based on the context of the document.

 

For example:

Consider two related documents - price list and sales invoice. Creating a link of the price list file in sales invoice folder will allow users to quickly create document to document relationships without having to go to the source location.

Right click on the file and from the pop up menu click on Create Link.

Create Link

In the dialog box, select the cabinet / folder where you want to place the link.
A link file with an extension .lnk will be created in the selected cabinet/folder with icon on the top left corner of the document icon.

Linked file

Note:

When you delete a link file, the original item is not deleted. It still exists in Docsvault in its original location but if you delete the original file, all the related link files will be deleted automatically.

 

The file properties of  the original file will be displayed when its link files are selected.
