You can combine duplicate documents and emails into a single document. This is useful in cases where a user publishes a new version of a document as a separate document, rather than checking out and editing the existing document.
You can only combine two documents in on operation, and both documents must exist in the same document pool.
To combine two documents into one:
-
On the header bar, click
Admin.
-
In the Search Admin Zones field at the top, enter
Document Stacker, and then click the
Document Stacker link that displays.
-
On the Re-Order Documents page, use the
Document Pool list to select the document pool where the documents are stored.
-
Specify any other criteria in order to narrow down your search results, such as the document title, file type, and so on.
-
Click
Search.
-
In the search results that display, select the check box in the Previous column for the document that you want to set as the first version of the document.
Tip: Use the published date or document ID to ascertain which document was published first.
-
Select the check box in the Current column for the most recent version of the document.
-
Click
.
The previous version is removed from the
DMS and added to the latest document as a version. Users can access the previous version from the Versions tab on the document details pane when they view the details of the document.
