               (if user has 'write' security access)

 

 

If the user has 'write' security access to documents in the current library it is possible edit document properties using forms provided for that purpose.

 

Main Action Buttons

Pressing the 'Update' button after making changes commits the changes or additions to the document.

If the user has 'delete' security access to documents then the 'Delete' button appears next to the 'Update' button on ALL document Edit forms. In all cases, taking this action will DELETE THE ENTIRE DOCUMENT, not just the properties that are displayed on the current edit form.

The Cancel button should be used to discard any changes made that have not been updated, or to close the form without making any changes.

 

Note: caution should rule when it comes to changing document properties, as documents can be deleted, or can be "lost" when their indexes or identifying properties get changed.

 

The Info view is the opening view when choosing to edit document properties:
