Document Types



Documents or images for Staff members, Parents and/or Learners can now be stored on d6+. You can use this to upload a copy of a person's ID, birth certificates, proof of residence, immunisation card, copy of last school's report, and other documents into d6+.


Create different document types:
Any number of additional types can be added according to the needs of your school.
Note:
Only one document can be uploaded per type, per person. If you would like to upload several similar documents, you'll have to create numbered types, for example, Therapist Report 1, Therapist Report 2, etc. Duplicate names are not allowed. Future development will add the ability to attach documents to events such as absenteeism.
