Global Document Category
Global Document Category
Property management users can set a Global Document Category and upload globally used documents in the CINC WebAxis Admin tool that will be inherited by all associations.
To create a Global Document Category select Manage Content > Global Document Category. If you are using universal navigation, click Associations > Documents > Global Folders.
On this screen, users can add a new Global Document Category, edit or delete an existing one, and upload documentation into the associated directory.
When the new category is created, users can set up directory privacy and access restrictions for different categories.
NOTE: Only users who sign into WebAxis will have access to the Global Document Directories defined as Private. Only users belonging to categories for which access is allowed will be able to see the Global Document Directory.
Once a Global Document Directory is created, it will be propagated to all existing associations within the management company.
NOTE: Refer to the icon on the Documentation screen to distinguish between regular and global directories
When a Global Document category is created with a name which is already in use as a local document folder under one or multiple associations, an alert will display. Click OK to close the alert popup.

Users can publish one or multiple document(s) to one, multiple, or all associations under specific property management.
Reports can be uploaded into Global Document Category from CINC Accounting Queue screen; the link to it is on the left side of the screen.
