Storage Areas

A document storage area is a directory where documents are stored.

Storage Areas
Displays all available library storage areas accessible to the library. If the Store Documents at Post Office field has a check mark, all storage areas are dimmed, meaning they cannot be used to add new documents. Documents currently stored in the document storage areas continue to be stored there. If the Store Documents at Post Office field is not checked, you can click the box of any storage area listed and it will be used by the library. A library can have multiple storage areas.

Store Documents at Post Office
Clicking this check box places a check mark in the box and dims the display of the storage areas listed. Library documents stored at the post office are placed in the post_office\gwdms\library\docs directory and cannot be moved. This is recommended for very small systems, or as a temporary document storage location.

Directory
Displays the complete path for the storage area when you select it in the Storage Areas list. No path is displayed if the Store Documents at Post Office field has a check mark.

Add
You can add a new storage area to the post office by selecting any valid path to which the Post Office Agent (POA) has access.

Edit
Allows you to change the name of the storage area.

Delete
Removes a storage area from access by the library. It does not delete documents stored at that location.

WARNING: Make sure that users are not currently storing documents to a document storage area that you will delete.
