How Documents Work

You can open documents stored on a SmartStruxure server using the default program associated with the file type. For example, a txt-file opens Notepad and a ppt-file opens PowerPoint.

When you click on the document in WorkStation, the document is opened outside WorkStation using the associated editor or viewer. In WebStation, the document is opened in a window inside WebStation using the associated editor or viewer. In WebStation, you can also choose to open the document editor or viewer in a new window.

Using WorkStation and WebStation, you can edit the documents and then save them in Building Operation again. 

Important:

When you log off or are automatically logged off, any unsaved changes in the document are not saved in the database. Make sure that you save changes in open documents frequently.

In WebStation, the browser defines if the documents are opened inside the browser or outside the browser with the associated editor or viewer.
