Manage documents
ARIS document storage enables you to manage temporarily or permanently saved documents.
The documents saved there can be used during runtime of an executable process, for example, attached to an e-mail.
All file formats are allowed for documents.
Temporary documents are documents that were not explicitly uploaded to ARIS document storage but were added to the process during process instance runtime if you use Process Governance. They are deleted automatically after the executable process is terminated. Temporary documents can be transformed into permanent documents and added to ARIS document storage if required.
Permanent documents remain in the ARIS document storage until they are explicitly deleted. You can set up access restrictions on the folder level for permanent documents.
If you use Process Governance, it is recommended that you specify that documents are to be saved permanently in ARIS document storage when modeling a dialog for an executable process, otherwise the location for these documents within ARIS document storage cannot be specified in the dialog.
You can work with documents in the repository or in the Published content.
ARIS document storage was tested with 40.000 document-related items. This includes documents, document versions, or folders. We recommend monitoring the number and overall size of stored document items and archiving older document items if the amount of 40.000 is exceeded.
