Adding a Document

The method of adding a document to a project in Ex-Online depends on the type of document it is and the associations you want it to have.

If it is a document specific to certain equipment such as certificates, datasheets, calculations then it is an Equipment Document

If it is a document that is used sitewide then it is a Project Document

If it is a document related to personnel such as qualifications or licences then it is a Personnel Document.
