Add a new Document


Add new Documents associated to a File.

1.      From a Documents list, click the Add/Update button on the Taskbar. (If Documents are Amicus-Managed at your firm, this button is called Add New.)

2.      Identify the matter File, choose your document(s), and provide Document profile information.

o     Identify the File to which the new Document(s) will be associated, if this isn't already prefilled.

User-Managed: You cannot upload a document unless the default path is already set for this File in  File Details in the Amicus desktop application.

o     Click the Add + button and browse to the actual document(s) you want uploaded. Repeat this action for additional documents from other locations, if necessary.

o     Or, simply drag-and-drop the document(s) from Windows Explorer or your Desktop to the Add Documents dialog. (May not be supported in all browsers.)

o     Optionally add other profile details for the document(s): Author, Contacts, Document Group, and Date.

o     Tell Amicus what to do upon upload If document already exists on the File:

§      Prompt you if and when that happens.

§      Add the document as a brand new document. Amicus will automatically append a date-time stamp to the end of the name to distinguish it.

§      Assume that the document is a revised copy, and overwrite the existing document.

Amicus-Managed: You won't have this option from this dialog. Use the Check In button to add your document as the new current version.

3.      Click Upload Now when ready.
