    If a paperclip appears in the Activity grid (before opening) it means that the attachment is an email message containing multiple files. Click on the paperclip to see a list of the files.

MSG Attachment types are Email messages saved in the same format as they appear in MS Outlook. These file types embed any attachments in the MSG format. A setting in DOC 369 Setup allows you to save the copy of the attachment as a separate file. If you choose to save the attachment separately, the attachment is available for viewing from within the MSG file and from the Activity Attachment grid.

If you attempt to view a file type that is not associated with an application, you will receive the following message:

If your agency has enabled Doc360 features for third-party vendor imaging, then for those documents managed using the third-party vendor, the File Name link opens the document using the third-party application. See Doc360 Setup > Doc360 Setup Sections > Third-party Integration Setup for more information.

 

To help you quickly find a specific activity within a large list, use shortcut key CTRL + F. Internet Explorer will pop up a Find window. Enter a key word which might be part of the Activity Description. Explorer will search the page you are viewing for that word, highlighting as it finds a match.
