Work areas
The client contains the following work areas: My ELO, Repository, Intray, Clipboard, Tasks, In use, and Search.
The work areas will be explained in the following:
My ELO
The My ELO work area is on the start page when you run ELO. From here, you can access the main areas of the ELO repository using tiles.
My ELOWork area, My ELOFeed posts relating to different entries (folders and documents) are displayed in the News tab. This applies for feeds such as those that a user has subscribed to or in which they are mentioned by another user. Escalated or recently started workflows that are relevant for the user are also shown in this work area.
Information: If no posts appear in the My ELO work area, check your filter settings. There may be no posts for the selected period (under New since).
The Recently used documents contains a list of documents that you recently viewed or edited.
Repository
The Repository work area is the central work area of the client. File and manage your documents and data here. For example, you can create new documents and folders, open documents for viewing, or send documents in different formats.
Work area, RepositoryIntray
The Intray is the central work area for incoming documents. You can drag any document onto the Intray work area. Documents mainly find their way to the ELO repository via the Intray work area unless they are dragged to the repository.
Work area, IntrayIntrayBefore you file documents to the repository from the Intray work area, you need to keyword them. You can automate this process. Alternatively, you can define the filing location via the selection dialog box for each filing process.
In addition, the Intray work area includes scan functions since scanning is an important medium for transferring documents to the repository.

The Clipboard is a work area for gathering documents temporarily. Use the Clipboard to store documents temporarily or to create a kind of favorites list.

This tab contains options for starting new workflows, editing and organizing workflows, setting up substitution rules, and viewing your existing tasks.

In use
The In use work area shows documents that were checked out or that are in use. Documents are locked for all other users while they are in the In use work area.

The search results are displayed in the Search work area. A new search view filter is created for every search query, which can be called up any number of times via the button. The search view filters remain in place until the client is closed. Use the Delete view filter function to remove an existing search view filter from the Search work area.
