View and add Personnel Documents through the Documents tab within the Personnel Information screen.
Figure 75: Documents tab within Personnel Information
The Documents tab displays documents associated to the selected employee. It will not, however, show documents that have the Inactive box checked. Further, you can add documents to their record by pressing Add Document, which opens a Choose Document dialog. From this dialog, you can navigate your environment and select a file to add to the system. Once a selection is made, the application prompts you to enter information on the file, such as setting the Document Type, through the Add Document dialog.
NOTE: Secure documents are visible by authorized personnel only. See the Personnel Documents topic for more information. Also, documents that have the Inactive box checked by Administration will also be hidden from view.
To view the contents of a document, double-click on a record or choose the right-click option of View Document.

The application opens the document based on the file type. For example, if the document is .doc or .docx, then MoversSuite opens the file using Microsoft Word. If the application is not available, i.e. Microsoft Word is not loaded to your environment, then you receive a prompt asking you to choose which application you wish to use to view the file.
