Our client (Profess Medical Consultancy) provides SOP consultancy services to Pharmaceutical companies and Research groups. Users can subscribe to one or more libaries with SOP templates to be used in their research projects.
As each SOP Library is defined as a separate Project in the Portal, it allows Profess to grant individual users access to one or more SOP libraries. The standard security features ensure that all documents inside the Portal are secured against illegal access.
Individual or Role-base access rules can be set to limit acces to either a complete manual, or a part of a manual.

Any portal Administrator will be able to upload new documents and manage existing documents. Each document can be linked to a version. In addition, each document can have a start date and an expiry date.

As an example, if you have a number of SOPs which are valid until the end of 2015, you can set the expiry date to Dec 31, 2015. From Jan 01, 2015, such a document will no longer be listed. And if you have a newer version of a SOP which is valid from Jan 01, 2016, you can upload this document anywhere before this date and set the 'Start date' to Jan 01, 2016.

For each document, you can set a revision date. This allows to select all documents (SOPs) which require a revision.

The Document management is extremely versatile. As a result, it can serve a multitude of purposes and can be easily configured to your requirements.

All documents are listed using a Listing template. For each template, you can specify a configuration. Each document listing can be divided into as many Tabs as needed. Different Versioning systems can be used (soft- or hard-coded). You can configure if you want to use Start or Expiry date or Revision dates, etc.

The document management system has an upload and download Audit trail. Thus it keeps track of who (and when) viewed or downloaded a document. and off course who uploaded a document.
