This is step 3 in the process of configuring assembled documents to save to iManage. Click here for an overview of saving into iManage.
Configuring Standard Folders in XpressDox to save into iManage
Return to your XpressDox > Settings > Configure.
Take note of the file path at the top, and ensure you are at the top folder level. All settings will apply to this folder and all sub folders, which means that all documents assembled from any folder will be saved into iManage.
The Document Save Folder is where you will define the iManage Workspace into which assembled documents should be saved. Typically in iManage that would be something like:
C0001.PL001 – Sale Agreement
- where C0001 is the Client ID in iManage;
- and PL001 is the Matter ID.
To save assembled documents into an iManage workspace, use the drive letter you configured as the Foreign File System in Step 2 of this process:
The way this would be written in XpressDox is as follows:
L:\[<ClientID>]:[<MatterID>]
- where L is the configured drive letter.
The colon and square brackets denote the Client.Matter syntax, and the data elements must be in angle brackets. The data elements ClientID and MatterID are not prescribed; you can decide what you want those data element names to be. However, in order for the integration to work, all three of these components in the path must be present.
So far, that would look like this in the Configuration:
Something like the above is possible, but not advisable to do at the top level since all assembled documents would then be saved into a folder called NDAs. It might not make sense to do that. It might make more sense to configure Standard Folders per practice group.
