Document history

In simple words

Document history is part of Legal & Documents. Who changed and approved what. This guide takes you through it in 5 short steps.

Where it fits in your work — Template. Build reusable blocks and layouts.

Before you start

• You need to be signed in to your company's workspace. Legal & Documents appears in the Workspace dashboard and in the left menu when your role includes it.
• What you can see and change depends on your role. If a menu item or button is missing, ask your workspace owner to give your role access in Workspace → Users.
• Document history belongs to Documents in Legal & Documents. Who changed and approved what.

Step by step

1. 1

   Step 1

   Open Legal & Documents

   Sign in and open the Legal & Documents panel from your Workspace dashboard (or sign in to it directly). You see only what your role allows.

2. 2

   Step 2

   Open “Document Library”

   In the left menu, click “Document Library”. The “Document Library” screen opens.

3. 3

   Step 3

   Choose a view

   Use the tabs at the top of the screen to switch between:

   • All
   • Draft
   • In Review
   • Pending Approval
   • Approved
   • Published
   • Active
   • Archived

   Step 4

   Add a new one

   Click “New Document” to add one. A form opens for the details.

5. 5

   Step 5

   Done

   Who changed and approved what.

Tips

• The tabs (All, Draft, In Review, Pending Approval) show different views of the same data — switching tabs never changes anything.
• If you make a mistake, open the record again and correct it. Changes are recorded against your name so your team can see who did what.

Quick recap

Open Legal & Documents → Open “Document Library” → Choose a view → Add a new one → Done
