Copying Objects

enaio® webclient • 11.10 »

In enaio® webclient you can copy objects (documents and registers) within a cabinet. Here you have a choice between:

  • Create copy

    If you copy a document, a new independent document of the same type and with the same document file is created. If you copy a register, only the register is copied, but not any documents stored in it.

    A copy is a new, standalone object. If you edit the index data or the document file of this copy, the changes only affect this copy and not the original object, unlike if you assign a new filing location to the object, for example.

    The copy of an object can also be created at the same filing location.

  • Add location

    You can also assign multiple locations to a document (see Documents with Multiple Locations). The same document file 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.

  1. Select an object (document or register) you want to copy (for example, in a hit list, in the inbox, or at a filing location).

  2. Open the context menu.

  3. Click or tap on the Copy icon Copy icon in the context menu.

    The selected object is copied to the clipboard.

  4. Open a different folder or register.

    Alternatively, you can also paste the copied object at the same filing location.

  5. Open the context menu.

  6. Click or tap on the Insert icon Insert icon in the context menu and select one of the following actions in the submenu:

    • Create copy icon Create copy: The index data form of the copied object (document or register) is opened for editing.

    • Add location icon 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.
