CREATE A CM REFERENCE FILE

This document describes how to create a Content Manager Reference File. A CM Reference file is a file with a tr5 extension that serves as a link to a record or records in Content Manager. It is a convenient way to share files with other Content Manager users.

 

1.      


Tag the records you want to include in the CM Reference File. (These can be documents or folders, etc. -- any CM record type.

 

 

2.       Right-click and select Send To . . . and then Save Reference.

 

3.       In the window that appears (see below):

a.       Select the top option to create one file that lists all tagged records, or

b.       Select the bottom option to create a separate reference file for each item tagged.

c.       Use the appropriate field to identify the directory location where you want the reference file(s) to be saved.


 

 

 

 

4.       After selecting OK another dialog box will appear to verify that you want to make a reference to each specific record. If you have selected multiple records you can select Yes to All or review each record you selected separately by selecting Yes.  

 

 

5.       This CM Reference File can now be sent as an email attachment, or can be stored as a shortcut on your desktop or elsewhere.

6.       When a user double-clicks on the CM Reference File, the hyper link will open directly to the records in Content Manager.
