You can place any documents you want into an envelope, regardless of whether they have anything in common. When an envelope is opened, it displays a list of documents that have been placed in it.
Envelopes provide you with a way to group documents together for easy access. Only the envelope's creator can view that envelope. Envelopes are an alternate way to retrieve documents; the documents remain accessible through standard document retrieval methods.
-
Because the entry in an envelope is actually a pointer to the document stored in its Document Type Group, removing a document from an envelope will not delete the document from OnBase.
-
Adding documents to envelopes does not duplicate the document in OnBase.
-
There is no limit to the amount or type of documents that can be placed in one envelope.
-
You can add a document to more than one envelope.
