Custom Document Types

Custom Document Types are internal documents that are unique to your company that you can add to a seafarer’s profile. They are only visible to your company's users. They can’t be used in Data Templates and are not required for Assignments or Recruitments.

Log into Martide and go to Settings in the menu under your profile picture and click on Custom Document Types:
