A document stack is a list of document types that are used in a variety of ways such as viewing in the document viewer, bundle grouping and naming, printing and downloading, security profiles, as well as in Document Stack Security, which was covered in a previous section.
Creating a Document Stack
To create a document stack, go to the XDOC Admin section Project Admin>Project Repository>Document Stacks, and do the following
Field | Description |
---|---|
Name | The name for the document stack |
Code | An addition Code reference for the stack used for matching when doing advanced document stack security. The best practice for this field is to make it the same as the name, but with no spaces and no special characters |
Description | Any added description if needed |
Active | Choose “Yes” to make it active, or available for use |
Sequence | Not actively used. You can ignore this field for now. |
Sort Rule | Stack Item Sequence – Orders the documents by how they are ordered in the stack Doc Type Sequence – The Document Type sequence. Equivalent to the sequence number in the document type editor |
Stack Item Sequence | Orders the documents by how they are ordered in the stack |
a. Bundle Naming – You can also configure the way the bundled documents get named that conforms to a way specified by an investor or other recipient b. Bundle Documents – You can determine the document types that get sent with a bundle, as well as the order in which they get send c. Printing (Downloading) - Printing and downloading a group of documents from the document viewer’s print and download icons d. Profiles – Allow viewing and uploading of a specific set of documents per security profile. e. Viewer - Will show up as a view stacks in the document viewer
Using Document Stacks for Document Naming - Some bundle recipients (Investors, MI companies, Servicers, etc.) may require that individual documents be named in a certain way that is different than how your company names it. In the document stack, the "Name", "Code", and "Ref Value" fields are three additional options for naming individual documents sent to these recipients. To use this alternate naming:
Place the alternate name for the document in the "Name" field. If there are additional names you want to use for this document, use the "Code" and "Ref Value" fields.
Use the appropriate token in the bundle template or bundle profile that will use this field for naming the document. The tokens are: a. Name field: $$Naming.name$$ b. Code field: $$Naming.code$$ c. Ref Value field: $$Naming.refValue$$
