Tangelo is configured by setting up one or more document types. A document type contains settings for:
- document and content structure; document input (templates, data source, interfaces);
- available output channels (online, PDF, print);
- collaboration.
Documents of this type are created, maintained and published based on these settings. The step-by-step guide below will walk you through the settings for document type properties.
Document type properties
Most of the document type properties are determined by configuration and fixed as a result. You can change the document type icon which is used on the start screen.
Privileges
If you have the authorization level of manager for a document type, you can assign the following document type privileges:
- create: to create a document of this type; the user that creates a document of this type automatically obtains the manager privilege for this document
- manager: to assign privileges for this document type
Default privileges
After document creation, one of the first tasks is to assign privileges to individual users and/or groups on document sections. Default authorization simplifies this task for privileges that are repeatedly assigned for each document of a certain type. The root section of every new document obtains the assigned default privileges.
