Document Types
Documents in Injury Master are categorised by specific Document Types. When uploading files to Documents, the first field to select is Type (required to complete upload). Generated Smart Forms default to one of the default Document Types. Existing documents can have their Type edited at any time.
For further information, please refer to Edit Documents.
Document Type Settings
Document Types can be viewed, added, archived or replaced from SETTINGS --> Document Types & Templates --> Document Types tab. Document Types are listed alphabetically, under COMPANY in Current and Archived tabs.
System default Document Types are marked as System. Default types include:
- Employer Liability Notification
- Example of Suitable Duties
- Initial Agent/Insurer Notification
- Internal Incident Report
- Medical Certificate
- Other
- Return to Work Plan
- Serious Incident Notification Form
- Wage Reimbursement Schedule
- Worker’s Injury Claim Form
NOTE: Document Types do not represent specific Smart Forms. For example, there may be multiple Return to Work Plan Smart Forms, all of which fit under the Return to Work Plan Document Type.
