Using the Backstage view

The iManage tab in t he Microsoft Office Backstage view enables you to view, open, and manage all your iManage documents, and to save new documents to the desired iManage location . The iManage containers are sorted per different groups based on your recent activity, and you can select any item in the lists for quick access to the desired document. For example, the Offline option under Documents and Matters enables you to view and open the documents and matters that you recently accessed in offline mode.

NOTE:

The Local Save As button that is available in the Backstage view (Save As > iManage) when DeskSite or FileSite is installed is not available with iManage Work Desktop for Windows. With the DeskSite or FileSite integration, iManage files could not be checked in when users saved them to a local directory. But with iManage Work Desktop for Windows, files are monitored before and after they are saved. If files are saved locally, they are checked into iManage in the background. So, the Local Open or Local Save As buttons are not required in iManage Work Desktop for Windows.

Select the File tab to display the Microsoft Office Backstage view.
Select Save As, and select iManage. By default, the Folders tab is selected and lists the recent folders that you accessed, and the matter in which they reside. Alternatively, select the following tabs:
- Matters: Lists the recent matters that you accessed with the Recent Matters list displayed by default. Recent Matters displays a list of all matters that contain a document or email you have created, opened, viewed, or modified on in the last 30 days . Select My Matters or Offline to view the other matters lists.
- Browse: Displays the iManage Open dialog box with the Recent Matters tab selected by default.
Select an item in these list. The iManage Save As dialog box displays the contents of the selected container. Navigate to the desired folder and select Save.

Alternatively, you can use the Save option in the main File menu in Office. This also displays the iManage Save As dialog box when saving a new document for the first time.

If you edit an existing document within iManage Work, selecting the Office File > Save option saves your changes locally. After closing the document, you are prompted whether you want to save the document or discard your changes. If you select Yes, changes are saved to iManage Work and the existing version is replaced.
