Documents are the individual files that exist within the Library. Pepper Flow assists in the review and approval of these documents by putting them through a job. Each document is a file (ex. PDF, .PNG, .DOC, .MOV) and is assigned its own unique document ID number in Pepper Flow.

Document ID
The document ID is a unique ID assigned to every document for auditing and tracking purposes. Pepper Flow generates an ID when you start a job. The ID format is configured based on your organization’s requirements.
Document IDs can be found in several areas including the Viewer and document card.
Document status
A document status lets you know if a document is approved and live. Document statuses appear in several places, including the document card, Viewer, History, and Audit Trail.
Note: Document status labels may vary depending on your organization's configuration.
