The View Attached Files screen is the main GOLDVault control screen. It is used to look up files in the system and to perform specific actions on those files. The following is an example of this screen.

 

ViewAttachedFiles

 

 

The top portion of the screen is used to enter search criteria. The buttons in the upper right-hand corner allow you to set certain options. The bottom portion of the screen gives a list of files that match the search criteria. Double-clicking a file in the list will display the file. Selecting a file or collection of files in the list and then clicking on one of the icons in the toolbar at the top of the file list or right-clicking and selecting options from the pop-up menu allows you to perform other actions on the files, such as exporting, printing, deleting, or updating.

 

Field/Button

Definition

Linked To drop-down

This drop-down list allows you to select which index type to look up. In the example above, the Customer lookup is selected. Valid index types are as follows:

 

Loan. A loan account number, including office, number, and check digit.

Deposit. A deposit account number, including office, number, and check digit.

Customer. A customer can be searched by either name or customer number. To look up by name, enter the name in the Name field and leave the Customer Number field all zeros. To look up by customer number, enter the customer number. If a customer number is entered, GOLDVault will search by the customer number, regardless of what is entered in the Name field. Use the SSN, EIN, or IDN radio buttons to specify whether the number is a Social Security number, an Employer Identification tax number, or a customer ID number.

Lender. An alphanumeric identifier number assigned to an originated loan by the lender.

General Ledger. A General Ledger number in the financial institution’s format.

Lookup fields

Depending on which Linked To option is selected, the lookup fields will contain the appropriate field(s), such as Loan Number or General Ledger Number, to enter for the lookup. Some fields, such as account numbers, will require all data to be entered before the search can be performed, and some, such as Customer Name, will allow you to search with a partial name. The <Search> button will be grayed out if your search parameters are not complete.

Include Deleted Files

Check this box if you want to include files that have been deleted but not yet purged from the database in your search. Only users with proper security settings will be able to check this box.

Search

Click <Search> to search for all files that match the entered criteria. When GOLDVault is called from another application, such as CIM GOLD, the calling application will set the default search criteria to the account or name displayed in the application and perform the initial search when GOLDVault is loaded.

User Settings

When you click <User Settings>, a screen is displayed that allows you to change the temporary file cache folder that you use. See User Settings Dialog below.

Scan Settings

When you click <Scan Settings>, a dialog is displayed that allows you to change options your scanner should use when you scan a document. See Scan User Settings Dialog below

n files found

This note at the right hand side of the screen in the toolbar line tells how many files are displayed in the file list, where n is the number of files.

File list fields

The file list has a number of columns that give information about the file and its corresponding index links. There are several optional columns that provide additional information. To view the optional columns, right-click on any column header and a list of available columns will be displayed. Choose additional columns or remove unwanted columns by checking or unchecking until only those columns you want to view are checked.

 

Columns:

 

File ID. Each file, when added to the database, is assigned a unique number that it will retain throughout its life in the database. Even if you rename a file to have the same name as another file, you can still identify it by its unique file ID.

File Name. This is the name of the file that was originally added to the database, or its current name, if the file has been renamed.

Linked To. The type of related link to the file, such as Loan or Customer.

Link Details. Details of the specific data linked to the file, such as a loan account number or a customer name and customer ID.

Category. The category of this image file.

Subcategory. The subcategory of this image file.

File Type. The file type of this image file.

Retention 1. The number of months to retain this document after the first retention event for the category occurs.

Retention 2. The number of months to retain this document after the second retention event for the category occurs.

File Size. The size, in kilobytes, of the file in the database.

Was Deleted. Yes, if the file has been deleted, but not yet purged from the database.

Link ID (optional column). When a link is added to a file, the link is given a unique identifying number. The link ID is used internally in the program and probably has very little value for users.

Comments. Tells whether comments are associated with this file.

Date Linked (optional column). Gives the date that the link and the file were linked together.

Date Uploaded (optional column). Gives the date that the file was added to the database.

Last Updated (optional column). Gives the date that a change was last made to the file, such as adding another link or renaming the file.

Date Dropped (optional column). Gives the date that the file was deleted. If the file has not been deleted, this date shows as 01/01/0001.

 

 

File Actions

Several actions can be performed on highlighted files. To perform an action, highlight the desired files, then click the appropriate icon in the toolbar, or right-click and select the appropriate menu item.

 

Export

Export the highlighted files from the database in their encrypted, compressed forms to a designated folder. The files will be stored in the specified folder, expanded, unencrypted, and in their appropriate file types with the file name given in the file list. This option is controlled by user role security.

Transfer

Transfer is used to change the attached link from one link to another. Use this function, for example, to change the account number the file is linked to, or to change the name it is linked to. Refer to the Transfer Links screen documentation for more information on how to do this. This option is controlled by user role security.

Email

Email the highlighted image files using the institution and user settings previously defined. In order for email to be available, the institution and user settings must be defined, you must have role security to allow emailing, and the file type must allow emailing. Refer to the Email Settings screen documentation for more information.

Print

Print the highlighted files from the database in their encrypted, compressed forms to a designated printer. This option is controlled by user role security.

Upload and Link Files

Open the Upload and Link Files screen, which will allow you to add additional files and links to the database. When you open Upload and Link Files from this screen, all links displayed on this screen are made available as possible links on the Upload and Link Files screen. Refer to the Upload and Link Files screen documentation for more information on how to do this. This option is controlled by user role security.

Add Link to File

This opens the Attach Files screen, which will allow you to add additional links to the highlighted files. When you call Attach Files from this screen, all links displayed on this screen are made available as possible links and all highlighted files are placed in the possible files list on the Attach Files screen. Refer to the Attach Files screen documentation for more information on how to do this. This option is controlled by user role security.

Delete

Delete the highlighted files from the database. When a file is deleted, its associated link is marked as deleted. If all links are deleted from a file, the file is also marked as deleted. Deleted relationships and files can still be viewed, with proper security, by checking the Include Deleted Files checkbox. Deleted files and links will remain on the system until they meet the retention criteria. Once files have met the retention criteria, deleted files are purged from the database and are no longer available. This option is controlled by user role security.

View

View the first highlighted file. This can also be done by double-clicking a file.

View/Edit Related File Links

Open the View/Edit Related Links screen, which will show all links to the file (for example, the name and the account attached to the file), and with proper user role security, will allow you to change the file name and/or change the document category, subcategory, and file type and retention months for the file. Refer to the View/Edit Related Links screen documentation for more information on how to do this.

View History

View history for the first highlighted file. Refer to the History screen documentation for more information on how to do this.

View/Edit Comments

Click this button and the "Cross Reference Comments for" dialog will be displayed. You can look at, edit, or add comments in this dialog.

Dialogs

 

The following dialogs are accessed through this screen.

 

 

User Settings Dialog. This dialog is accessed by clicking <User Settings> on the View Attached Files screen. It allows you to change the temporary file cache folder that you use. This temporary folder is used as a work folder when exporting, emailing, printing, or viewing files. Files in the folder are deleted when your work session is completed.

 

The User Settings are unique to each user. If multiple users are adding export files, they will each need to set up their own user settings appropriately. There is no institution default setting.

When the above settings are selected and filled in, GOLDVault will save a copy of the image file and the image header information file in the export folder each time a new file that has a file type with a non-zero export format is added to the system. When files are added in a pending state, they are saved in the export file when the pending file is accepted. The image header information contains all the links attached to the exported file, such as account link, customer link, etc.
