Documents
General
Working with documents in Newton is easy and flexible. It starts with a plan: The structure of Document Types. This hierarchy is managed under Configuration/Options/Document Types.
A structure could look like this:
Document Type Attributes
Attributes can be used to further describe the behaviour of documents of a certain type. For example, if they should contain a Due Date, for which data types they should be used, or if they are relevant for VAT. Here’s the full list:
