Tech Tip: Recycling and Restoring Pages and Electronic Files in Laserfiche 8.1
March 23rd, 2009 Comment on this articleThe Laserfiche Recycle Bin is a feature that protects against accidental deletions of items in Laserfiche. When it is enabled, a deleted document is not immediately removed from the repository; instead, it is sent to the recycle bin, where it can be reviewed and restored, or permanently purged, by the user who deleted it or by an administrator.
In Laserfiche 8.0, only folders and documents could be sent to the recycle bin. In Laserfiche 8.1, the recycle bin’s capabilities expand to include pages and electronic files when they are deleted separately from the document that contains them. When one or more of a document’s pages are deleted, or when the electronic file (the actual Word document or PDF, for instance) us deleted from an electronic document, those pages or electronic files will be sent to the recycle bin.
When pages and electronic files are restored, their annotations and associated text, including word location information, will be restored as well. As with all pages and electronic files, they will be subject to the security settings of the document they belong to.
Pages and electronic files will be retained in the recycle bin until they are purged, or until the document they were deleted from is purged from the recycle bin.
- Note: This tip refers to a feature in a future version of Laserfiche. Features may be added, removed, or modified before the final release of Laserfiche 8.1.
