Filing Cabinet
The ‘Filing Cabinet’ is a flexible record keeping system, similar in operation to a regular network or computer drive, but with enhanced access controls.
The folders you see when you log in will depend upon your permissions. Administrators determine which folders each user can view.
Watch this short video overview of the Filing Cabinet (with audio).
Document Vault
The Document Vault 
is reserved for the documents that are your company policies and procedures.
These typically are not edited or changed regularly, and are linked from your Management System page.
Any documents you wish to appear in your Management System must be placed in the Document Vault.
You can create folders within the Document Vault to better manage your documents.
Filing Cabinet
The Filing Cabinet 
is used for general document storage, such as for:
- Project Documents
- Site Specific Documents
- As a Shared Workspace
- Documents that you wish to access offsite.
Note that files stored in this area are not accessible from the Management System.
