[Mayan EDMS: 2507] Mayan EDMS on Youtube

[j***@gmail.com]

Hi,
Is it possible to make a new youtube video about how to use Mayan Emds.
I have found some small video's but they are to short and to old.

Coudn't find a manual how to use it either,

I have some questions. I use the docker image on my synology.
I want to use the watch folder but could not create a map inside docker.
Becouse it not worked i have tried the pop3 email. Thats works great.
So now i have some new file's but there's no way to see all new
(not classified (hope its the correct word)) files.

I saw it's possible to rename the file's with a other program. Is it also
possible with a docker image?

And what's the meaning of Checkouts, parsing, Cabinets.

And i saw on Documenttype "Amount of time after which documents of this
type will be moved to the trash."

So the documents are deleted after a while?

Sorry for my English.

Hope someone can help me.


Thanks,

Is that documentation link everything that is available? Apart from reading
this group are there any other docs available that you are aware of?

I have setup Mayan via Docker and have spent a full day setting it up, I
think I clicked every link at least twice, I create users, groups, roles,
workflows, states, transitions, cabinets and am still failing to grasp the
connections between these.
I'm also confused by the fact that one can setup ACLs on most items. I am
still failing to figure out how to upload a doc to a cabinet and have it
automatically end up in the corresponding workflow where the right person
can then transition it.


What is my best way forward, should I describe my (quite a simple scenario)
requirements here and see if anyone can help out? Mayan looks like it can
do exactly what I need except the lack of a user-manual or description of
the connections between items I mentioned.
