Creating and using desktop shortcuts

If you use certain documents or folders often, it can be useful to create desktop shortcuts. A desktop shortcut allows you to open ImandrA directly to a specific document or folder without having to navigate to the document or folder location.

To create a desktop shortcut to a document, folder, or search:

1. Right-click a folder in the Navigation pane or a document in the document list.
2. Click Create Shortcut on the shortcut menu. A shortcut appears on your desktop.

Note    Shortcuts refer to a specific revision of a document unless the document is later revised, in which case the shortcut refers to the new revision. That is, if you create a shortcut to a prior revision of a document, then the shortcut will always refer to that specific revision because a prior revision cannot be revised. If you create a shortcut to the latest revision of a document but a new revision is made in the future, the shortcut will then refer to the new revision instead.

To use a desktop shortcut:

1. Double-click the shortcut. If automatic logon is not configured, the FileNet Logon dialog appears.
2. Log on to FileNet as usual. ImandrA opens with the document or folder contents specified by the shortcut in the document list.
