Document Types

Document Types lets you rename documents in Martide to something that makes more sense for your company. For example, we have a document called ‘2nd Engineer’ but you might want to use 'Second Engineer'. 

When you change a name in Document Types that document is renamed everywhere in the system for your company. 

Log into Martide and click Settings in the menu under your profile icon then on Document Types:

You will go to this page:

Here you can:

• See a list of all the documents in Martide in alphabetical order.
• Change the order of the documents by clicking the 3 lines next to a document and dragging it to a different place in the list. Click the Save Order button when done.
• List the documents in reverse by clicking the arrow next to Original Name.
• See the documents’ Original Name, Display Name, Category and Slug.
• Edit a document’s name by clicking the pen icon to its right.
