Checking the Publishing of a Document on the TMS Server

After installing the TMS product, you should check to make sure that the publishing installation was done correctly.

To check the operation of the publishing function:

  1. Go to the web site using the server name set up during installation.
  2. Log on as the administrator user ID created during setup.

TMS should load.

  1. Expand the Administration menu and click Review Group List.
  2. Click the Add button.
  3. Add a review group and select the admin user as the Review Group Administrator and member.

The admin user should be the only one in the system at this point.

  1. If you would like to convert documents to PDF, you will need to select Document Conversion from the main menu list. Before publishing a document, make sure the File Converter is running. Refer to .
  2. Add the file types you would like to convert to PDF for reviews and signatures; for example, .doc for Word documents.
  3. Click Document List.
  4. Click the Add button.
  5. Fill in any miscellaneous item. The only requirement is you must assign a review group and then click the Browse button to select a document for publishing.
  6. Click the Save button.

A plug‑in downloads and, when finished, a blank document page should display.

  1. Click the Cancel button, and then click Document List .

The document you just published should be listed.

  1. Select the preview icon.

If you chose to convert documents to PDF format, the document will display using Acrobat. (Make sure you have Acrobat Reader installed.)

NOTE: If you have a slow web server or a large document, there could be a slight delay before you are able to preview the document from the list because of the conversion process. If you have any questions or concerns about the operation of the publishing function, call QSI Technical Support at (800) 458 0539.
