User generated document ID numbers

This article explains how to set your own document ID numbers for Documents, Contracts and Records.

This feature allows you to create your own document numbering convention or maintain an existing document numbering convention when implementing the LogiqcQMS platform. 

Note: 

This feature is a paid optional add-on.  To enable this feature click here and select 'Tell me more about optional features'.

Once this has been activated in your LogiqcQMS, this is a permanent change that cannot be reversed.

Once this feature is activated, a field is presented on the details form allowing you to enter your own unique ID number when adding or updating documents, contracts and records. 

doc_ID

Existing documents, contracts and records at the time of activation will retain their LogiqcQMS ID number until each item is updated with organisation's unique ID number. 

For optimal user experience, existing documents, contracts and records should be updated with new ID numbers as soon as possible after feature activation. 

Step 1: Adding a user generated ID number to a document, contract or record

  • Open the existing document or add a new document using the FAB button at the bottom-right of your screen.
  • Enter a unique ID number in the item ID number field.  This is a numeric only field with a limit of 6 characters.
  • Complete any other field as required and save the form. Note: The system prevents duplicate ID numbers from being used. 

The user-generated ID number is displayed in all relevant locations instead of the LogiqcQMS ID number. If the item has an existing LogiqcQMS ID number, it will be removed and replaced by the new user-generated ID number.  

LogiqcQMS sorts items numerically and existing items with LogiqcQMS ID numbers will appear first in the sort order.
