Document Prefills
Prefills are a collection of keywords assigned to a particular doc type. For example, the prefill “Vendor” is a collection of the following keywords:
- Vendor Name

Keyword values within a prefill are generally pre-populated. In the example above the Vendor Name, ID, and Contact have pre-defined values. When the prefill is selected it will automatically load the 3 keywords with their values.

Document keywords are assigned to Doc types. When you select a doc type and it has keywords associated with it, they will be displayed in this section of the upload screen.
