Technical documentation
Technical documentation is part of the Controlled Documents module and is used for managing product development records, such as test reports and requirement documents.
Creating a technical document
To create a new technical document, open the settings menu next to any product space within the TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
submenu in the left sidebar and select Create new document
. You can also click the + New document
button in the controlled documents module.
Note: A new technical document can also be created as a child of any existing document.
Proceed through the following steps to create the document:
Step 1: Select a space and parent for your document. The space defines the roles and permissions that will apply; the parent simply determines where the document will be stored. A document can be the direct child of the space itself (at the top level of the space), or it can be a child of a document within that space.

Step 2: Select a template for your document. See our guide on eQMS templates for more information about how to create reusable templates for controlled documents.

Step 3: Provide details for your document, including a title, description, and reason for creation.

Step 4: Select team members that will be working on the document, including Co-Authors, Reviewers, and Approvers.

After proceeding through the above steps, click Create Draft
.
