Under "Classification" the hierarchical and ordered list of all existing files is displayed, as defined, allowing you to browse through them by clicking on the name of each file, and displaying the list of documents it contains and their data.
If you access any of the existing and generated collections, you can view all the files and documents dependent on each of them.

In files, you can see "File","type","last modification" and"actions". (*) In addition, the"add documents" icon will allow the user to insert new documents in the selected file, indicating the type or collection to which they wish to assign them. To do this, the application displays a new subwindow for"Associate document" where this selection can be made from a drop-down list.

By default, the "All" option is always activated, but if the "Documents" tab is activated, only those belonging to the selected file are shown. By default it is shown as a "list", but you can use the "grid" option. (*) All actions to be performed on documents are described in detail in the "Document Explorer" chapter.
The pop-up window obtained after opening a file to check its documentary content, allows, from the left side of the window, a file navigation with a significant folder icon, being able to go back at any time.
