SAPoffice: Default documents (administration function) 

Description

You can create one or more default documents for the various PC document types. These default documents are then provided as templates when the function "Create document" is called.

Default documents are useful if you

• want to store layout sets.

• work with different versions of a PC application (e.g. WinWord 2.0 and 6.0).

• work with a PC application which expects a formatted transfer file from the very start (e.g. PowerPoint).

Software/hardware requirements

You can only create and edit PC documents if you are working on a PC which has the required PC application. The system considers the application to be there if there is a valid entry for it in the PC register. This applies to all PC documents and therefore also to default documents.

Changes to the interface

Create a default document as follows:

1. Select Tools -> Administration -> Administration -> Process technology -> Office -> Folders -> Default documents.
This takes you to a shared folder in which you can create default documents.

2. Select Document -> Create or Edit -> Upload and create the document in the normal way.

Note

In the case of PC applications which expect a formatted file from the very start, you should work with the function Upload.
