Link Active Document

In the context menu of a document (right-click item in result list or empty area in a detail window mask), and also in the Links pull-down menu on the Assignments Ribbon tab of a document detail mask, you can find various functions for the linking to other documents or articles.

After selection of some functions, the Enter links dialogue window will be displayed, and the current document is automatically entered in the selected window of the class. The Link can be selected from the drop-down list at the top of the dialogue.

If a link cannot be created between particular object types, for which there can be various reasons (e.g. no link type available for this purpose in the database), the following message will be displayed:

One practical example of this linking of documents would be the linking of a CAD drawing with an associated user manual.

In the detail mask of the corresponding document (of the CAD drawing), right-click and choose Links > Link new document as target class.

In the displayed Link class selection... dialogue, choose Document-Document and confirm with Apply.

At the top right of the following dialogue...

...click on File selection and select the file (e.g. of the type PDF) to be linked to the source document of the CAD drawing via your Windows Explorer.

Now, the document data input mask for the target document appears. nächstes erscheint die Dokument-Eingabemaske für das Zieldokument. Dort können Sie Angaben wie z.B. eine eindeutige Benennung machen, Bestätigen Sie die Eingabe mit OK.

Im folgenden Dialog für den Workflow-Objekttyp sollte Allg. Dokument (R) ausgewählt werden.

Danach wird die Dokument-Detailmaske der neu angelegten Gebrauchsanweisung geöffnet. Im Reiter Quellen wird das Dokument der CAD-Konstruktion als Verknüpfungsquelle aufgeführt (genauso wie in der Detailmaske des CAD-Dokuments die Gebrauchsanweisung im Reiter Ziele aufgelistet wird).
