Smart links
Smart links are a way to link documents without changing how they are organized in their respective indexes. Smart links are useful when two documents are related somehow but are of different type or different hierarchical units.
Example: A patient record can be related to a prescription drug information document, but they each belong to their own separate document index.
Smart links are rule based, but don’t create any organizational structure. Smart links just show the documents that match the rules as evaluated against the metadata or properties of the currently displayed document.
Indexes are automatic hierarchical units used to group documents, smart links are automatic references between documents.
Example:
Document type:
Patient recordsMetadata type:
Prescription, associated as an optional metadata for the document typePatient records.Document type:
Prescription information sheets
A smart link with the following condition, will automatically links patient records to the prescription information sheets based on the value of the metadata type of the patient record.
