Linking

Linking: Provides the ability to establish a primary document with a link to the other documents in different RVI imaging systems. For example, the primary document in HR could have a link to a document in the employee payroll system.

RVI security applies. This option assumes that if the user has security to the system associated with the primary document, they also have security to the system(s) associated with the linked document(s). (The linking profile is setup by your system administrator.)

If the document’s indexes satisfy a linking rule that is setup for this image system:

• The system will display L next to the record.
  

Two options to access Linking:

Option 1:

• When you view the document, click to see the list of systems with documents linked to the current image. Select a system code from the list. The Link Information grid will open at the bottom of the screen with a listing of linked documents for that system.
  

Example: System C was selected so the Link Information at the bottom of the screen shows System C documents linked to the primary document in the display window.

• Double-click any item in the list to view the document.

Option 2:

• Right-mouse click the record, select to view the list of systems with linked documents. Select a system in the list to leave this system and connect to the linked system. All images for the selected system linked to the primary image will be listed at the bottom of the screen.
  

Example: System D was selected so the Link Information at the bottom of the screen shows System D documents linked to the primary document in the display window.

• Double-click any item in the list to view the document.

*For further details on Linking and the setup requirements, refer to Chapter 18 (Image System Links section) in the RVI 90 IBMi User Manual.
