The new Offline Documents module has a new feature called ‘favourite documents’.

A document can be made favourite via two methods: by self, and mandatory.

Favourites made by self

Folders and documents can be made favourite by the user and, as the method suggests, are only visible for themselves. Any documents that are important for the user can be listed as examples for this type.

1. Click on the heart icon in the respective row to make the entire folder (i.e., all contained items) or document favourite for you. (Once selected, the background of the heart icon colour will change to black).

   Open

   

   The ‘self favourite’ button for a folder.
   Open

   

   The ‘self favourite’ button for a document.

    

2. Alternatively, right click and select ‘Edit Folder’ on the folder (or ‘Edit Document’ for a document) that you would like to make favourite for you.
   
   

    

    

3. In the ‘Edit Folder’ window, tick ‘For me’ checkbox and click ‘Update’.

Mandatory favourites

Mandatory favourites are folders and/or documents that have been made favourite by a librarian, or Document Library administrator (i.e., a user who has write access to a folder). The librarian ‘assigns’ a mandatory favourite to one or more users, so they can see the document on their PWA app.

Use this method if you want your users to always have certain documents in their PWA app.

To set a folder or document as a mandatory favourite:

1. Follow steps 2-3 in the Favourites made by self section above, then select one or more users by using the Personnel Picker next to the ‘Make mandatory for users’ label.

    

2. For a folder, click Update to save changes. For a document, progress through the wizard and click Finish to save changes.
