How to edit a linked document in Sims .net

1. Go to Focus>Student>Student Details and select the Linked Documents link. Select the applicable Linked Document and click ‘Open’. This will now save the document as a local copy on your machine or open the existing copy you may have. Make any necessary changes to the document and once you are satisfied it is correct, save it.
2. Close the file and return to SIMS. Click the OK button in the Edit Note/Document window. You must click Save. If you do not click save and click OK or Cancel instead, the Linked Document will not be uploaded to the document server. This means that the user who made these changes will continue to see them as the Linked Document is now on their workstation as a local version but all other SIMS users will continue to see the original document.
3. After clicking Save, an Upload Modified Documents window will appear. Tick the document and then select Upload. Once this has a Status of ‘Uploaded’, click Close and OK to exit the windows. The Linked Document will now be updated for all SIMS users.
