What is a Link?
A link is an auto generated address that when selected will take someone directly to the document the link is for, within the MatterSphere Document Management System. A link can be inserted into an email for others to access.
How is this beneficial?
- Amends can be made by several people to the one document at source – no collation of amendments from several documents required.
- Anyone accessing the document can be sure its the most recent version.
- No need to clutter many email inboxes with unnecessary attachments.
- Allows for approval of documents without printing
Restrictions
The only restriction to the use of links is that the recipient of the link must have access to MatterSphere. This cannot be used for external/client access to documents, for security reasons.
How to Create and Send a Link
- Go to the Documents Tab on the matter and select the document you wish to create a link to (if more than one use Ctrl + Select to multiple select documents)
- Select the Email Menu and then click Send as Link
- Your email will generate with the link or links on it, you will now need to populate the recipient, subject and type any necessary text within the email
- To send click Save and Send to save the email to the matter. Alternatively click Send to send without saving.
