The "Create Link to Request Documents" feature in our document management software is a game-changer for efficient and secure document sharing. It empowers users to generate unique, shareable links for requesting specific documents, streamlining the retrieval process and reducing the need for manual intervention. This functionality is designed to make document exchange faster, more convenient, and more secure for all parties involved.

Effortless Document Requests

With this feature, users can create a unique link and share it with individuals who need to upload or provide specific documents. Recipients can use the link to directly access the system and fulfill the request without requiring access to the entire document management platform. This eliminates unnecessary steps, simplifies workflows, and ensures timely access to the required documents.

Flexible and Secure Settings:

To enhance control and security, the feature offers customizable settings for each link:

File Type Restrictions:

Specify allowed file extensions to ensure recipients upload only the required document types.

File Size Limits:

Define the maximum size for individual files to prevent oversized uploads.

Upload Limits:

Set the maximum number of files that can be uploaded via the link.

Password Protection:

Add an extra layer of security by requiring a password to access the link.

Link Expiration:

Set an expiration date and time for the link to ensure it remains active only for a specified period.

These settings ensure that only authorized individuals can use the link and that uploads comply with your organization's requirements.

Streamlined Approval Workflow

Once a recipient uploads the requested documents via the link, system users can review and approve or reject the files. During the approval process, the system prompts the user to assign essential document characteristics, such as:

Category:

Organize the uploaded file into the appropriate category.

Storage Location:

Select the designated storage area for the file.

Document Metadata:

Approved documents are then integrated seamlessly into the document management system and can be assigned to specific users or roles for further action. This ensures that every document is properly categorized and accessible to the relevant stakeholders.
