  • Link Document to an Activity - link the document to a related activity to keep everything centralized, accessible, and organized for smoother activity management. (e.g., meeting minutes, agendas, and financial statements for a “Board Meeting” activity)

  • Link Document to a Vendor - link the document to a related vendor to easily keep everything centralized, accessible, and organized for smoother vendor management. (e.g., contracts, quotes, and warranties for a vendor)
