Document Types are a way for you to categorize different types of documents while they are being attached. They act as file folders associated to the Transaction Types. Each Document Type can have its own unique security settings and associated metadata. The Document Type option allows you to manage the Document Type of any Transaction Type, wherein you can Add, Edit, or Delete a Document Type. You can even manage profile fields for a specific Document Type.

PaperSave 5.2 now provides a few more Document Types under some Transaction Types of the respective modules for SIS. Click here to view the list of newly introduced Document Types.
