### **Read & Confirm and Review Content**
*Read & Confirm* and *Review Content* are two functions which help keep documents and users up-to-date.
#### **Read & Confirm**
*Read & Confirm* is a function of the Documents and Policies App which allows for users to acknowledge that they've read a key document (e.g. harassment policy), so a manager can track at a glance if a group or specific staff have complied with the requirement. Read & Confirm allows a manager to track which staff members have read a specific required file and acknowledged that they've done so.
Click App options \> App settings \> Toggle on 'Read and Confirm'
Publish content \> Click More Settings on the content level \> Turn on Read & Confirm
#### **Review Content**
The *Review* function of the Documents and Policies App allows for a reminder that a document or policy is due for a review to ensure its currency and accuracy. When a Review Content date is added to a file, the document's owner is automatically alerted that the document needs to be reviewed for accuracy and currency.
A common issue is for documents, policies, etc. to get added to a Document Repository and go stale because they were added and never reviewed. The *Review On* feature addresses this issue by giving a reminder to the document owner that it's time to review - and potentially update - their document.
Publish content \> Click More Settings on the content level \> Turn on Read & Confirm
### **Archive Content: (complete archiving system to be released)**
Archive field is defaulted in the Docs App layout. To customize \> Edit App Detail View \> Remove 'Archive on' field or Make field required
Add Archive date on a content level before publishing
### Multiple File Upload
Multiple file upload is a time saver for getting files into the intranet.
### **File Versioning**
To start utilizing the File Versioning functionality, after a document is uploaded into the Documents app, you will see an option for Add New Version. Click Add New Version to upload a new version of the document. The new file will be set as the current document, and previous file uploads will be retained as versions.
Once a new version is uploaded, click on Version History to view past versions and confirm which version is the current version.
### Edit Content
The new Documents app is a simple file manager and focuses on being a file upload and storage application with default fields
**v3.0 Doc App (Unable to add new fields or customize layout due to mobile compatibility for this new application)**
****
**Available default fields: Title, Description, File Uploader**
To use the legacy document app’s customization features, simply reupload or import [this template](https://intranetconnectionstest-my.sharepoint.com/:u:/g/personal/chichi_intranetconnections_com/IQCy5S93wHTLSrNXHu180ZBDAd0gLvov7_i-h6RsCajgTDc?e=K89pf0).
