Document Registration Variants

Registration variant is a saved set of document registration parameters.
When you register a document, the system allows you to enter registration parameters manually or use a saved variant. Registration variants are used when the same set of parameters is used often, to avoid entering the same parameters each time. To create registration variants, the records classification scheme must be created and configured.
You can create registration variants in Administration - Document Management - Document Registration Variants (fig. 1).
