Business management · Corporate Document Management

Every company document with version, approval, expiration, signature and audit trail

Inside the Documents screen, a switch toggles between the existing Explorer and Corporate management. Every upload becomes a numbered version with a hash, the category decides retention, approval and signature, expiration warns before the due date and signing goes through the same e-sign as contracts. The file stays private in the company's own storage, with a download link that expires in 5 minutes, and the trail records everything, including every download.

The problem and the fix

The problems Corporate Document Management solves every day

If any of these situations sounds familiar, it is because they happen in almost every graduation company, until the right system comes in.

The problem

The HR policy has five files with the same name and nobody knows which one is in force.

With Partiu Formatura

Every upload becomes a numbered version with hash, size, who and when. The approved version is the one in force, older ones remain readable and restoring creates a new version.

The problem

The contract went into the folder without anyone approving it, and legal only saw it later.

With Partiu Formatura

Approval by category, with approvers in sequence or in parallel, a mandatory opinion when rejecting, a deadline with reminder and the "my pending approvals" list.

The problem

The certificate expired and the company found out when bidding for a tender.

With Partiu Formatura

Warnings in the bell at 30, 7 and 0 days, expired status set automatically and renewal that creates a new version.

The problem

The minutes were signed at the notary and the PDF was left loose in an email.

With Partiu Formatura

A document signed elsewhere is recorded (paper, notary or external ICP certificate) and the PDF is inspected to note the digital signatures. Documents signed inside go through the contracts e-sign.

The problem

Anyone with access to the folder sees the confidential agreement.

With Partiu Formatura

Permission per document or category, for a user or role, in four levels. A confidential document requires explicit permission.

The problem

The file sits on a public link or on a computer's disk, and nobody knows who downloaded it.

With Partiu Formatura

Private object in the company's storage, signed link that expires in 5 minutes and a complete trail, including every download.

In practice

Real examples of Corporate Document Management working for you

Everyday situations at graduation companies, from the problem to the result, using the modules on this page.

01

The policy that went through legal

The scenario

HR published a new reimbursement policy, and the Policies and Standards category requires approval.

With the system

The upload became version 3, and the flow asked legal and finance for opinions in parallel. Legal rejected with an opinion, HR fixed it and uploaded version 4.

The result

Version 4 was approved and became current. Version 3 remains readable, with the opinion that rejected it, and the trail shows every step.

02

The certificate renewed in time

The scenario

The company's tax clearance certificate expired at the end of the month.

With the system

The warning arrived in the bell 30 days before, again at 7 and on the day. The responsible person renewed it, and the renewal created a new version with the new expiration.

The result

The certificate never lapsed, and the previous version was kept with its hash.

03

The disposal that kept the record

The scenario

Supplier contracts from 2018 passed the 60-month retention after their term.

With the system

The category policy was set to alert. The person with manage permission reviewed the list and confirmed disposal, one by one.

The result

The files were deleted from storage, and each record kept its hash, versions and trail, to prove what existed.

How it works

How information flows through Corporate Document Management

Every step is a real module, and what comes out of one goes into the next without anyone typing it again.

  1. 1The document is uploadedOn the Documents screen, in Corporate management mode, the upload becomes version 1, with SHA-256 hash, size, who and when. The file goes privately to the company's storage.
  2. 2The category sets the rulesOne of the nine categories sets the default retention and whether the document requires approval and signature.
  3. 3Approval happensApprovers in sequence or in parallel, mandatory opinion when rejecting, deadline with reminder. Once approved, the version becomes current.
  4. 4The signature goes out or is registeredEnvelope through the platform's e-sign with tracked status, or registration of a document signed elsewhere with the PDF inspected.
  5. 5Expiration is watchedWarnings at 30, 7 and 0 days, automatic expired status and renewal that creates a new version. The 06:50 daily routine takes care of it.
  6. 6Retention closes the cyclePolicy per category, alert or archive action, and manual disposal with confirmation that deletes the file and keeps the record with its hash.
