Import Hybrid Documents – Meridian PowerWeb Knowledge Base

Importing hybrid documents is almost as easy as importing non-hybrid documents. The configuration of a hybrid document type does most of the work. That is, determining which document should be the main hybrid part and which documents should be subordinate parts.

Note:

Consult a system administrator for the names, associated file types, and purposes of hybrid document types defined in your vaults. You will need to know which document type to assign to the imported documents depending on the file types of the documents.

To import a hybrid document:

Upload the main document as described in Import Files Using Drag And Drop. The document appears in the current view.
Attach each hybrid part to the main document as described in .
Upload a file for each hybrid part as described in Upload Hybrid Part Content.

Note:

The main part of the hybrid document must be in a workflow for the Attach as Hybrid Part command to be enabled. Depending on the configuration of the vault, newly imported documents may not be in a Quick Change (default) workflow. Start a workflow, if necessary, before joining the documents.

All properties of the main part of the hybrid document apply to the subordinate part documents as well. All commands executed on the main part of the hybrid document will also be applied to the subordinate part documents.
