Copying Objects
In enaio® webclient you can copy objects (documents, folders, and registers) within a cabinet. Here you have a choice between:
-
Create copy
A copy is a new, standalone object of the same type with the same content. When you create a copy, the index data of the new object will be opened for editing. A copy of an object can also be created at the same location.
-
Add location
You can also assign multiple locations to a document (see Documents with Multiple Locations). The same content and index data are accessed from all the locations of the document. Changes to a document made at one location are therefore also visible at all other locations. If you delete a document that exists in multiple locations from one location, then only the location data at that specific location will be deleted.
Folders and registers can only have one location.

-
Select an object (document, register, or folder) you want to copy (e.g., in a hit list, in the inbox, or at a filing location).
-
Right-click (enaio® webclient and enaio® webclient as desktop application) or press and hold (enaio® mobile) to open the context menu.
The context menu can also be opened on smartphones by clicking the
More actions icon found on each line.
-
Click or tap on the
Copy icon in the context menu.
The selected object is copied to the clipboard.
-
Go to another folder or register.
-
At the new filing location, click or tap in the empty space in the content area and open the context menu.
Alternatively, you can also select a folder or register in the register tree of the new location and then open the context menu.
The following applies if you are using enaio® mobile on a smartphone:
On smartphones, the navigation and content areas are not placed next to each other due to space constraints. You can switch to the navigation area by tapping the
Register tree icon in the title bar of the filing location. Tap the
Arrow icon to return to the content area.
-
Click or tap on the
Paste icon in the context menu and select one of the following actions in the submenu:
-
Create copy: The index data form of the copied object (document, register, or folder) is opened for editing.
-
Add location: A new filing location is added (this function is only available for copied documents).
-
The copy is created or another location is added.
If you cannot insert a copied object at the desired location or add another location to a copied document, this may be because:
-
you do not have the appropriate rights at the desired location.
-
the type of copied object cannot be inserted at the desired location.
