A.8 Update Document Page

The Update Document page is used to update the metadata of an existing document or to replace it with a new document. Depending on the application versioning settings, a new version of the document may be created or the document may be replaced by the updated one. To access the Update Document page, select a document from a Search Results Table and then select Update from either the Search Results Toolbar or the Search Results Contextual Menu.

Note:

You can also update the document metadata by clicking Update on the Properties Panel of the Viewer. This does not display the Update Document page, but instead enables the metadata fields in the properties panel to be modified. Once changes have been made to the fields, click Update again to submit the changes.
