Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
By going to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`, you can enable the centralization of files
|
||||
attached to a specific area of your activity. For example, by ticking :guilabel:`Human Resources`,
|
||||
your HR documents are automatically available in the HR workspace, while documents related to
|
||||
Payroll are automatically available in the sub workspace Payroll. This can be updated by changing
|
||||
the value in the dropdown menu. The external link allows you to edit the selected workspace.

||||

:alt: Enable the centralization of files attached to a specific area of your activity.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
If you enable the centralization of your accounting files and documents, it is necessary to click
|
||||
on :guilabel:`Journals` and define each journal independently to allow automatic synchronization.
|
||||
|
||||
Workspaces
|
||||
==========
|
||||
|
||||
Workspaces are defined by hierarchical folders having their own set of tags and actions. By-default
|
||||
workspaces exist, but you can create your own by going to
|
||||
:menuselection:`Configuration --> Workspaces` and clicking on :guilabel:`CREATE`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
:guilabel:`Sub-workspaces` can also be created, edited, or deleted by clicking on the
|
||||
:guilabel:`gear icon` on the main page' left menu in the Documents app.
|
||||
|
||||
Tags
|
||||
====
|
||||
|
||||
Tags are used within the workspaces to add a level of differentiation between documents. They are
|
||||
organized per category and filters can be used to sort them. Tags can be created and modified by
|
||||
going to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Tags`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
- The tags of a parent workspace apply to the child workspaces automatically.
|
||||
- Tags can also be created, edited or deleted, by clicking on the :guilabel:`gear icon`, on the
|
||||
left menu.
|
||||
|
||||
Documents Management
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
When clicking on a specific document, the right panel displays the options that are available for
|
||||
your document. On the top, you can click on the small icons to :guilabel:`Download`,
|
||||
:guilabel:`Share this selection`, :guilabel:`Replace`, :guilabel:`Lock` or :guilabel:`Split`. It is
|
||||
also possible to :guilabel:`Open chatter` or :guilabel:`Archive` the document.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
The :guilabel:`Open chatter` option allows to :guilabel:`Send Message` (to everyone following the
|
||||
document), to :guilabel:`Log Note`, or to :guilabel:`Schedule activity`. You can also
|
||||
:guilabel:`Attach files`, :guilabel:`Follow/Unfollow` the document or show followers.
|
||||
|
||||
The name of your file can be edited in the :guilabel:`Document` box. A :guilabel:`Contact` or an
|
||||
:guilabel:`Owner` can also be assigned to your document. The related :guilabel:`Workspace` can be
|
||||
modified and you have the possibility to add :guilabel:`Tags`.

|
||||
the workspace where your document is stored.

Workflow actions
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
Workflow actions are automated actions you can create and customize at the level of each
|
||||
workspace. They appear next to a file whenever it meets the criteria you set. That way you can,
|
||||
for example, add tags to a file or move it to another workspace with a single click. Workflow
|
||||
actions help you streamline the management of your documents and your overall business operations.
|
||||
For each workspace, it is possible to configure specific workflow actions that are automated actions
|
||||
that can be created and customized at the level of each workspace. Ie: create documents, process
|
||||
bills, sign, organize files, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
They appear on the right panel when it meets the criteria you set. That way, you can, for example,
|
||||
add tags to a file or move it to another workspace with a single click. Workflow actions help you
|
||||
streamline the management of your documents and your overall business operations.
|
||||
|
||||

Set the conditions
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
After naming your workflow action, you can set the conditions that trigger the appearance of the
|
||||
action button on the right-side panel when selecting a file.
|
||||
You can :guilabel:`Create` a new :guilabel:`Action` or edit an existing one. You can define the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Action Name` and then set the conditions that trigger the appearance of the
|
||||
:guilabel:`action button` on the right-side panel when selecting a file.
|
||||
|
||||
There are three basic types of conditions you can set:
|
||||
|
||||
#. **Tags**: you can both use the *Contains* and *Does not contain* conditions, meaning the files
|
||||
*must have* or *mustn't have* the tags set here.
|
||||
#. :guilabel:`Tags`: you can both use the :guilabel:`Contains` and :guilabel:`Does not contain`
|
||||
conditions, meaning the files *must have* or *mustn't have* the tags set here.
|
||||
|
||||
#. **Contact**: the files must be associated with the contact set here.
|
||||
#. :guilabel:`Contact`: the files must be associated with the contact set here.
|
||||
|
||||
#. **Owner**: the files must be associated with the owner set here.
|
||||
#. :guilabel:`Owner`: the files must be associated with the owner set here.

It is recommended to have some knowledge of Odoo development to properly configure
|
||||
:guilabel:`Domain` filters.
|
||||
|
||||
To access the *Domain* condition, the :ref:`developer mode <developer-mode>` needs to be activated.
|
||||
Once that's done, select the *Domain* condition type, and click on *Add Filter*.
|
||||
To access the :guilabel:`Domain` condition, the :ref:`developer mode <developer-mode>` needs to be

:alt: Activating the domain condition type in Odoo Documents
|
||||
To create a rule, select a :guilabel:`field`, an :guilabel:`operator`, and a
|
||||
:guilabel:`value`. For example, if you want to add a workflow action to all the PDF files inside a
|
||||
workspace, set the :guilabel:`field` to *Mime Type*, the :guilabel:`operator` to *contains*, and the
|
||||
:guilabel:`value` to *pdf*.
|
||||
|
||||
To create a rule, you typically select a field, an operator, and a value. For example, if you want
|
||||
to add a workflow action to all the PDF files inside a workspace, set the field to *Mime Type*, the
|
||||
operator to *contains*, and the value to *pdf*.
|
||||
Click on :guilabel:`Add node` (plus-circle icon) and :guilabel:`Add branch` (ellipsis icon) to add
|
||||
conditions and sub-conditions.

|
||||
also edit the rule directly using the *Code editor*.
