Document Types

The Document Types function allows you to create the various document types which companies/presenters can use to identify the contents of documents they upload to the event site. For example, you may want presenters to upload a presenter bio or photo. To do this you would first create a corresponding document type. The presenter can then login and upload his or her bio identifying it as type 'bio'.

From the Doc Types tab you can add a new document type, edit or delete an existing document type.

To Add a new document type:

• Click on Add Document Type
• Enter the name of the file type you want companies/presenters to upload. Some examples include: speaker bio, speaker photo, press release, powerpoint, fact sheet, financial documents, etc.
• Click 'Save'
• The screen will return to the Document Type list, your new document type should appear.

To edit an existing document type: select 'edit' to the right of the doc type

To delete an existing document type: select 'delete' to the right of the doc type listed.

Important note: If you want the companies/presenters to only be able to upload one document type, such as 'press release', you need to delete all the other document types listed. Otherwise, all document types will be listed in the drop down box on the company upload page.
