Document Management

This area is used to organize documents and is only accessible by the JobView 360 Administrator.  The documents can be uploaded as common (accessible by all users) or specifically for role-based functions such as jobs, projects, trades, vendors or job superintendents.

File Restrictions

There are no restrictions on the type of documents that can be uploaded to JobView 360. However, the user must have the software needed to open the file to view or print the document.

File sizes for uploading are restricted to a maximum of 256 MB.  If the file size exceeds 256 MB, an error will display.  Depending upon your web-browser, the system may try to upload the document, but after a failed attempt, may display an HTTP 04 page not found error or the document will fail to upload with no error message.

Managing Directories and Subfolders

Under the Administration menu, select Document Management.  The following JobView 360 default Directories will be displayed:

Under the Common Directory, the administrator can create common or unique subfolder names.  This is the only directory where unique subfolders can be defined.

Under the role-based Directories (job, project, superintendent, trade or vendor), only system-generated subfolders can be created using the drop-down menu.

Common Documents

Common documents are accessible by all JobView 360 users to review and print. Examples of common documents may include a company phone list or community locations and directions.

 

Job Documents

Job Documents are accessible to review or print by users assigned a vendor name in their JobView 360 user profile and have at least one purchase order for the job. Only system-generated Job subfolders can be created.

 

Project Documents

Project Documents are accessible to review or print by users assigned a vendor name in their JobView 360 user profile, have at least one purchase order for a job within that project and where the project is active in Builder 360. Only system-generated Project subfolders can be created.

 

Superintendent Documents

Superintendent Documents are accessible to users assigned as a Project or Job Superintendent in Builder 360 and a Superintendent in their JobView 360 user profile. Only system-generated Job Superintendent subfolders can be created.

 

Trade Documents

Trade documents are accessible to vendors assigned trades in their Builder 360 vendor profile. This is done by going to Accounts Payable > Vendors in the Builder 360 application. The available trades are managed by going to Setup and Preferences > Support Lists.

Creating, Renaming and Deleting Subfolders

  1. Common Directory - the administrator can create common or unique subfolder names.  This is the only default folder where unique subfolders can be defined.

  2. Role-based Directories (Job, Project, Superintendent, Trade, Vendor) - The drop-down menu can only be used to create system-generated subfolders.  No additional subfolders can be created beneath the system-generated subfolders.

CAUTION!  There is no delete confirmation or warning.

 

Uploading, Renaming and Deleting Documents

 

 NOTE: Documents will be uploaded to the folder that is open on the left. If the destination subfolder is not open, make sure to select it before uploading the document.  Documents cannot be moved to a different folder after they are uploaded. To move a document, delete it and upload it again to the correct folder.
