Spreadsheet Alternatives: Centralize Documents and Files
In the attempt to use spreadsheets as systems, a serious problem arises: where do we put the files? The company creates a "Payment Approvals" sheet, but the Invoice PDF gets lost in an email or a network folder named "Final_Copy." The broken context between the table and the document kills productivity.
Uniting Data and File
The golden rule of efficient operations is: the proof of the data must live glued to the data.
Jestor's Document Hub
This is where Jestor acts, organizing the digital mess:
- In-Card Attachments: In Jestor, the PDF Invoice or the product damage photo is attached directly inside the record (card) of that task. Finance opens the card and sees everything.
- Native Previews: No one needs to download the file to their computer to see what it is. The system opens an image or PDF preview right in the browser screen.
- Extension Restriction: Create validation rules. "The 'Signed Contract' field only accepts PDF formats." This prevents the rep from uploading unreadable images (JPG) and stalling audits.
