PaperSave gives you the ability to update one or more Profile Field values for multiple selected documents at the same time.

 

Let us understand the functionality in a better way by following the below steps:

 

1. Open Host Application.

 

2. Select a desired record for a particular Transaction Type.

 

3. Then click Show Documents option.

 

Assumption:

We assume that multiple documents are already added to the selected record using Add Document(s) option.

 

4. As you will click Show Document(s) option, Document Explorer window will open as displayed below. Now select multiple documents by checking the checkboxes available against each document. Or you can check the checkbox available on the header of the grid to select all the documents in a single click. Then select Options tab and click Update Document Metadata button.

 

Note:

Update Document Metadata button will only work when you have selected the document by checking the checkbox and not just by selecting the grid.
Update Document Metadata button will only get enable if Profile Fields exists for the selected document.
Please make sure that you have rights to modify Document Metadata values.
