Each record of the grid has a reference to the type of document (Doc. Type), a network drive (…), a complete path to the identification (Filename), an entry date (Date) and an automatically generated protocol number (Protocol). The remaining fields can be filled freely with data, even for identification: Notes (20 alphanumeric characters), Ref. 1 (numeric field), Ref. 2 (10 alphanumeric characters), etc.

For more details, refer to the relative manual of the Microsoft Word® program (www.microsoft.com), regarding the “Bookmarks” management. For specific advice to define the whole context, contact our sales departments.
