Document Type – Certification Information

Do you need to track document training using the SmartDocTM system with SmartTrainTM? There may be certain company policies or procedures which employees are required to read and understand. The Certification Information folder is available in Document Types and within every document record in order for customers to track employee training and sign-off on such documentation.

Document Training Requirements are setup under the Certification Information folder by role. Any users who have been assigned a role that has been added to the Certification Information folder must now read the document and sign-off on it in the system as it may have been made a training requirement.
