JETCAM Orders Controller's (JOC) document linking allows you to drag and drop any type of doucment to create an association with a material, component or assembly, providing staff with a single point of access for all relevant material.
The grid views in materials, files and assemblies show you in the 'paperclip' column how many documents are associated with an item. Clicking the info button on the left shows a list of the documents. double-click to open, or hover over to see the full path.
Any file that you can open can be associated - whether it's a DXF drawing, a quality inspection PDF or a Works Order word document. Each file type uses the default application icon to give immediate visual reference as to the file type.
Create a link to a given file and the link to that file is visible even when it's used within an assembly. When linking a document to a file within an existing assembly you can specify to link just to that assembly or the source file, ensuring that it's always available for future assemblies.
