Learn about the basic features and functionality of documents in SiteVault.

Doc Info Page

The Doc Info page is displayed when you open a document from the Documents > eBinder or Documents > Library tabs. The Doc Info page displays a viewable rendition of the document along with any associated document information. Among other actions, you can edit document information and initiate workflows and state changes from this page. See the table below to learn more about the different areas and features of the Doc Info page.

Lifecycle Stages Chevron Panel

Lifecycle stages help you understand where a document is in its lifecycle by grouping specific lifecycle states into ordered collections of stages. The lifecycle stages chevron panel provides a visualization of the document’s progress, with each chevron representing a single lifecycle stage. The chevrons are color-coded to indicate the document’s current stage:

  • Green indicates a previous stage.
  • Blue indicates the active stage.
  • Gray indicates an upcoming stage.

The lifecycle stages chevron panel can also give details for incomplete tasks. Select the blue (in-progress) chevron to see a list of up to five open tasks. Tasks are displayed on the task card in the same order as they are displayed in the Active Workflow panel. An exclamation point icon is displayed on the blue chevron if one or more tasks are behind schedule.
