Something that is common to companies both large and small is the use of templates to create accurate and consistent documentation.  The ability to incorporate this into a team collaboration environment takes this to the next level, reducing costly errors and providing a repository to store and quickly locate the documents down the road.

I recently created a sample Docova document type for this purpose. The context was the creation of legal Non Disclosure Agreements, but it could be almost any document type from form letters to press releases.  

Here is how it works.

1.   A custom NDA Docova document type is created that includes a subform with a series of custom fields for the variable text on the form letter.
2.   The NDA boilerplate form letter, a Word document, was edited to include Word bookmarks where the variable text is inserted.
3.   The template was added to the Docova home database, and referenced on the custom NDA document type.
4.    A button was placed on the subform that used thingFactory to get a handle on the Work template, and push the field values to the bookmarks.
5.   Some folder views were created to organize the NDAs by customer, date...etc.

Here is a video overview of the finished product.

Start to finish...about four hours of work.
