Procedure: Associating Documents with a Portfolio Item

To associate documents with a lease, building, or property:

Click Add New at the top of the Documents panel.
The Add Document dialog box appears.

Enter or select the following required fields:
Document Name: Enter or select a name for the document.
Description: Enter details, such as tenant or landlord obligations for utilities and services.

Optionally, enter or select the Classification for the document, such as Contract. Entering a classification helps to organize your documents.

Click Save.

To attach the document, click the Check In Document button next to the Document field . This button appears after you save the document name and description.
The Check In New Document dialog box appears.

Click Browse.
The dialog to locate and select the file appears.

Locate and select the file, and click Open.
The Check in New Document dialog box appears. The name Archibus uses to store the file appears under the Browse button.

Optionally, enter a description of the document and set the document lock status. By default, the status is unlocked. The goal of locking documents is to prevent two or more people from editing the same document at the same time, which results in two or more different branches of changes. Typically, you lock documents as part of the check out procedure and unlock documents when you check them in.

Click OK.
The Document field now has the document management buttons.
See Using the Document Management System.

Click Save on the Add Document dialog box.

To add another document, repeat this procedure.
