Shape Your Filing System with Strict Structure

Ensure Every Document Lands in the Right Place—Automatically.

Keep your document repository clean, consistent, and compliant with Docsvault’s Filing Template feature. Designed for multi-user environments, Filing Templates ensure every document follows a standardized path and folder structure—automatically. It’s the smarter, safer way to manage documents at scale.

Benefits of Using Filing Templates

Automate Consistency, Strengthen Compliance, and Simplify Filing.

Folder-Level Consistency

Every document lives within a precisely defined folder path. Templates enforce consistent folder hierarchies—no exceptions, no workarounds.

Automated Folder Generation

Folder names and structures are auto-generated using metadata like Client, Case Number, Department, and Document Type. This removes human error and enforces an enterprise-wide standard.

Compliance-Ready Structure

Enforced structure supports legal and regulatory standards, making audits and discovery faster, cleaner, and more defensible.

Key Features of Filing Templates

Docsvault Filing Templates offer a robust set of capabilities to support structured, rule-based document management:

Enforced Folder Structures

Folders created using a Filing Template follow a predefined layout that cannot be changed or restructured by users. This ensures that the organizational hierarchy remains consistent and scalable over time.

Index-Based Folder Logic

Folder names and nesting are generated from metadata values —like Client, Case Number, Department, or Document Type—ensuring folder paths remain uniform across users and time. Manual folder renaming is disabled to prevent inconsistencies.

Restricted Additions Outside Template

To preserve structure, users are prevented from adding new folders outside of the assigned Filing Template paths. This maintains the integrity of your filing system and prevents rogue folder creation.

Dynamic Folder Paths

Templates use a combination of static text and dynamic values—such as department name, matter ID, or date formats—to automatically create folder paths and ensure every document is routed correctly at the structural level.

Original Filename Options

Retain the original filename as part of the new naming convention with optional prefixes or suffixes for added clarity.

Seamless Integration

Filing Templates are tightly integrated into Docsvault’s import and capture processes. Whether you’re manually uploading documents or importing them in bulk, the template structure is automatically applied based on your configuration.

Administrators can set up different templates for different document types or departments, ensuring every document lands in the right place —without creating extra overhead.

Eliminate Filing Chaos. Enforce Order at Scale.

As businesses grow, so does the complexity of managing documents. Without strict folder rules, even the best systems break down. Docsvault’s Filing Template feature gives you the power to build a document ecosystem that is automated, consistent, and scalable—right out of the box.

Let your team focus on what matters—while Docsvault keeps everything organized behind the scenes.
