     Linking external documents to records in the database

ASIST Enterprise allows you to link any type of document to any record in your database.

It is important to remember that linked documents are not stored inside the database. Only the link and descriptive information about the link is stored inside the database. If there are multiple users of your system you may want to establish a common area on your network to store linked documents. This will allow all users of the system to be able to view the linked document. To link a document to a record follow the steps described below.

To add a linked document follow the instructions listed below.

1. Open the desired module.

2. Select the desired record from the navigation tree by left-clicking on it.

3. Locate and click the Linked Document button on the button bar or

click on the Tab that labeled Document/Work Order and right click in the grid and select Add as in the example below. (Note: The example below shows the Tab array for a field inspection form. The illicit discharge, work order and sample forms will have different Tab arrays.)
