Implementation Considerations for Document Records Processes

You can typically use field value defaulting and validation in these cases.

  • Defaulting when creating a new document
    • Default Document Number as "Person ID || Issued Date" based on the Document Type.
    • Default Publish Date to Issued Date based on the Document Type.
  • Validation in the landing page, when creating or editing a new document
    • For Passport document type, Issued Date should be greater than or equal to From Date.
    • For Drivers License document type, warn users if To Date is null.

This table lists the supported attributes, exceptions, and the implementation recommendations for the Document Records pages.

It applies to all pages under Me, My Team, and My Client Groups tabs.
