About document management

The Document Registry is a lightweight document management system, used to store or reference external documents and files (Microsoft Office-based files, multimedia images, drawings, etc). A variety of information can be stored against each file (division, department, document type, level of confidentiality, etc), providing users with an advanced search facility for files and documents in both the client and web server. Management of documents and files includes version control, authorization, sign-offs, creation and management of drafts, archiving and automatic notification to subscribers and responsible parties. Access rights are used to govern who has access to particular files.
