Document owner(s) can be selected from a dropdown list of users.

Document owners have the ability to approve documents, which is relevant for companies who are required to attest an annual/periodic review for regulatory agencies or other governing bodies. Document owners are also notified any time a new comment is made on a file and are responsible for affirming continued suitability of the file if enabled under Advanced Options.

Selecting the Advanced Options Tab allows the user to apply enhanced settings to the file. An explanation of each Advanced Options checkbox is included in the table below.

Explanation

Selecting the “Document is public” checkbox allows individuals who are not users in the KAStrack system to view files.

Users in KAStrack will need appropriate permissions to view the file regardless.

Document is 360° Photo

Selecting the “Document is a 360° photo” checkbox communicates to KAStrack that the file is intended for 360° viewing to ensure it shows correctly.

New Revisions Require Approval

Selecting the “New revisions require approval” checkbox opens a dropdown menu. Approval requirements for the file can be designed by Access Level, Certification Role, or specific individuals in the system. An additional checkbox can be selected if this revision requires approval.

The “This revision requires acknowledgement” checkbox will notify the Access Levels, Certification Roles, or individuals selected of the new document. If “Acknowledgement is required for login” is selected, a user will not be able to access anything in KAStrack until the user acknowledges the revised document. A textbox allows the user to include a customized acknowledgement message that will be included in the automated message sent out to users by KAStrack.

Users view the files that require acknowledgement on the Documents Module Review Page, or just after signing in, when “Acknowledgement is required for login” is enabled.

Send Notifications of New Revisions

Selecting the “Send notifications of new revisions” checkbox allows a user to customize (by Access Level, Certification Role, or individual) who receives an email notification that a new file revision has been updated in KAStrack. An additional checkbox can be selected if a notification is to be sent for this revision.
