Complete Control, From Draft to Audit Trail

Manage Document Workflows, Reviews, and Revisions with Full Transparency

From approval logic and change requests to assigned actions and automated reminders, Symbiant’s Document Management Module gives you a secure, structured system for total visibility and seamless collaboration across the entire document lifecycle.

Document Workflow and Change Control

Symbiant’s Document Management Module helps you manage and review all your business documents with precision and control.

Each document begins as a draft and must be approved before it can be published. Once published, any user can submit a change request. These requests can be accepted or declined and may then form the basis of a new document revision — enabling full team collaboration while preserving structure and control.

The module enforces a clear document lifecycle:

Draft → Approval → Published → Change Request → New Draft

This built-in logic ensures consistency and auditability across the entire workflow.

To protect document integrity, users with view-only access can only see the most recently approved and published version. This secure layer keeps unapproved drafts hidden while ensuring transparency for official documents.

Reviews, Actions, and Audit Trail

Inside each document record, you can create reviews with a selected purpose and assign actions to specific users. Tasks can be given due dates, and the system automatically sends out notifications and reminders to keep everything on track.

Reviews and actions are linked to the overall record, not just a specific revision, making them consistent across document updates. This creates a clear, centralised audit trail and makes it easy to review the full history of what’s been done and why.

You can view all review entries and actions in one place, giving you full visibility and accountability across the document lifecycle.
