Manage company documents

Company Documents is a module in the IRIS Cascade HR system. It is designed to allow for easy storage, classification, and retrieval of organisational documents.

It gives you two options to help manage your organisations documents.

  • Admin > Documents catalogue is an area where files/documents are uploaded and permissions are set as to which role can access them and the type of access allowed.

  • HR > Documents is where users can access these files/documents.

Many different types of documents may be stored, from simple text files to larger documents such as Microsoft Word or Excel, PDF documents and images.

The Documents directory screen allows users to see published documents at a glance. Documents are classified under user-defined categories, allowing for easy browsing. Categories can be added/edited in Admin > System lists > System Catalogue.

The Documents catalogue is managed using IRIS Cascade’s role-based system, enabling HR Users to perform a wide range of functions, while self-serving employees can be limited to document download only.

Documents are downloaded simply by clicking on the document name. Provided that the user has the appropriate viewing software installed on their PC (e.g., Microsoft Word, Adobe Reader), the document will be opened as soon as the download is complete.
