Features

You can use the following features when managing document types and subtypes:

Managing document types

The ApShell application set comes with several document types by default. You can add or remove document types by choosing Manage Document Types on the Administration page.

Managing document subtypes

Document subtypes help you to further categorize documents when you post them in the Content Library. Administrators can define a list of subtypes from which users choose, and users can create their own as needed. You can add or remove document subtypes by choosing Manage Subtypes on the Administration page.

Changing the order of document subtypes

While document types always appear in an alphabetical list, document subtypes appear in the order in which they were created. You can change the order of the subtypes using the Change Order icon at the top of the Order column. The sequence automatically adjusts so the new sequence number exchanges with the subtype that had that number.
