Document Linking

About Document Linking

Any type of document may be linked, or the user may scan the image directly into the base directory by right clicking in the document area and choosing ‘scan’.

Documents ARE NOT stored in the company database.  The documents are stored in a central network location setup by your IT department.  The EZClaim program simply stores ‘links’ to the documents that are on your server.

WARNING: Backing up the Premier Company file does NOT back up the folder where documents are stored.  Please backup the documents folder using your normal backup procedures.  Contact your IT department for more information.

Configuration

Cloud Users: Please contact EZClaim to create your Documents folder on the cloud servers.
