A Binder is a collection of related documents, as if grouped by a virtual paperclip. The binder establishes its collection by providing a group of links to Documents and other multi-media file content that are stored and protected as well as able to be shared concurrently.
Binder objects also provide information to the iDox Service and the Progression Engine regarding what files to process, where they are located and where to move them once they are processed.
Key fields that hold the same type of index information on Documents in a binder are the means for associating and binding the documents together as a binder object.
A binder object can then serve as a work item allowing one or more documents to be moved and processed at the same time through the workflow for a business process.
Note: Sub-Binders are an embedded binder within a binder (i.e., recursive nesting is possible, since this can be done at more than one nested level).
