The following window contains two sections:

  • Category details (see below)
  • Field Form (to find more information about Fields, please click here)

Category details:

  1. Assign the Category Type to one or more Groups.
  2. Give the Category Type a Title, for example, Group Record.

The three switches are self-explanatory. You can indicate:

  1. The status (Activated/Deactivated). Tip: Leave the switch Off when the Type has not yet been completed or users shouldn't be able to select this particular Type when printing a document.
  2. Is the Category related to a Batch: Yes/No.
    • If Yes is selected the Reprint Justification can only be set to Yes
    • If Yes is selected it is not possible to increase the No. of Copies printed at a time during the virtual printing process.
  3. Should a reason be given when issuing a reprint of a document: Yes/No.
