Create new document
Tip
Already have the document? See Upload documents.
Follow the instructions below, depending on how documents are managed in your SuperOffice installation.
How do I know if I am using SharePoint, SuperOffice WebTools, or not?
SharePoint: Create a new document. If it opens in Microsoft Office Online, you are using SharePoint.
SuperOffice WebTools: Open the system tray in the lower right corner of your desktop and look for the SuperOffice icon .
Steps
With SuperOffice CRM, you can log in from any PC using a browser, but your documents will then be saved on the central server. Downloading and uploading of documents are handled automatically by SuperOffice WebTools.
Click New > Document on the top bar.
Click the Create button to create a new document based on the selected document template. The Document dialog closes automatically, and the document opens in your default text-editing application.
Type in the content of your document.
Save it and close the text-editing application. The document is saved.
