In the past this was typically done by distributing paper copies. Since its introduction, e-mail has largely replaced the need for paper distribution, and using e-mail and file shares as the companies only Policy Management Software is pretty common.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 5px !important;\">However, there are now a number of better alternatives. Sending important documents by e-mail has the big disadvantage that there is no way to tell whether they have been read or not. You also don\u2019t want to flood staff inboxes further and lose important e-mails in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Storing policy documents in SharePoint is more efficient as it allows people to find them using search or via links on the intranet. Nonetheless, many organisations continue to e-mail documents as attachments, and aren&#8217;t using the features of SharePoint to give an effective solution. There are smarter ways to do this, and in this post we\u2019ll be exploring some of them.<\/p>\n<p>__CONFIG_colors_palette__{&#8220;active_palette&#8221;:0,&#8221;config&#8221;:{&#8220;colors&#8221;:{&#8220;16871&#8221;:{&#8220;name&#8221;:&#8221;Accent Darker&#8221;,&#8221;parent&#8221;:&#8221;43816&#8243;,&#8221;lock&#8221;:{&#8220;saturation&#8221;:0}},&#8221;43816&#8243;:{&#8220;name&#8221;:&#8221;Main Accent&#8221;,&#8221;parent&#8221;:-1},&#8221;4592d&#8221;:{&#8220;name&#8221;:&#8221;Accent Lighter&#8221;,&#8221;parent&#8221;:&#8221;43816&#8243;,&#8221;lock&#8221;:{&#8220;lightness&#8221;:1,&#8221;saturation&#8221;:1}}},&#8221;gradients&#8221;:[]},&#8221;palettes&#8221;:[{&#8220;name&#8221;:&#8221;Default&#8221;,&#8221;value&#8221;:{&#8220;colors&#8221;:{&#8220;16871&#8221;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(3, 3, 3)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl_parent_dependency&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:80,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.01,&#8221;s&#8221;:-0.05}},&#8221;43816&#8243;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(171, 212, 107)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:83,&#8221;s&#8221;:0.5497,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.6255,&#8221;a&#8221;:1}},&#8221;4592d&#8221;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(244, 250, 235)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl_parent_dependency&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:84,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.95,&#8221;s&#8221;:0.58}}},&#8221;gradients&#8221;:[]},&#8221;original&#8221;:{&#8220;colors&#8221;:{&#8220;16871&#8221;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(29, 23, 12)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl_parent_dependency&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:38,&#8221;s&#8221;:0.41,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.08,&#8221;a&#8221;:1}},&#8221;43816&#8243;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(255, 204, 102)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:40,&#8221;s&#8221;:1,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.7,&#8221;a&#8221;:1}},&#8221;4592d&#8221;:{&#8220;val&#8221;:&#8221;rgb(250, 246, 236)&#8221;,&#8221;hsl_parent_dependency&#8221;:{&#8220;h&#8221;:42,&#8221;s&#8221;:0.58,&#8221;l&#8221;:0.95,&#8221;a&#8221;:1}}},&#8221;gradients&#8221;:[]}}]}__CONFIG_colors_palette__  <\/p>\n<h3><span>Tired of reminding staff to <strong>read your company policies?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">DocRead makes compliance simple<\/p>\n<p>  <a href=\"\/products\/demonstration\/\" style=\"border-radius: 0px; overflow: hidden;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"\"><span style=\"\">See how<\/span><\/span> <\/a>   <\/p>\n<h6>Policies are created for a reason and must be read<\/h6>\n<p>When a policy or procedure is created, there is of course, a reason for doing so. &nbsp;For example, a procedure for requesting annual leave is pretty common. When people don\u2019t follow this procedure, their annual leave might not be approved or other problems occur. Similarly, safety policies created to improve safety also need to be read and followed.<\/p>\n<p>This is why policies must be distributed in a smart way, such that people can read them whenever required. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/products\/docread\/\">DocRead<\/a>, our flagship SharePoint add-on, is an excellent way of doing so. It extends the great SharePoint document management capabilities with features tailored for distributing policies and procedures to give a great Policy Management Solution. Those features include:<\/p>\n<p><span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/notifystaff_icon.jpg\" style=\"\" width=\"140\" height=\"158\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h6><a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/products\/docread\/tour\/emails-and-notifications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NOTIFY\ufeff<\/a><\/h6>\n<p>When policies are updated, or when people have not complete their reading task on time, notifications can be sent to people via e-mail. These e-mails have a personal touch, because they are not sent to a huge group of people, but only to the recipient. Further, they also include personal details like the person\u2019s name.<\/p>\n<p><span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/readacknowledge_icon.jpg\" style=\"\" width=\"140\" height=\"158\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h6><a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/products\/docread\/tour\/read-and-acknowledge-policies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read\ufeff and Acknowledge<\/a><\/h6>\n<p>Sending an e-mail has the disadvantage that there is no way to track whether the document attached has been read.

Some policies are for the entire organisation, but other sets of policies are only meant for one division or department. Audience targeting makes sure people only see the documents they should be seeing. It allows for Required audiences, audiences that must see the document, and Recommended audiences, which consists of audiences that are allowed to see the policies, but don\u2019t have to.<\/p>\n<p><span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/realtimereporting_icon.jpg\" style=\"\" width=\"140\" height=\"158\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h6><a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/products\/docread\/tour\/track-progress-with-real-time-reports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">real-time REPORTING<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/products\/docread\/tour\/emails-and-notifications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/h6>\n<p>Easily track who has read the policies, and who has not with the Real-Time Reporting feature in DocRead. It contains a high level dashboard which displays a summary with e.g. top reading tasks and total number of tasks.

Sending them as e-mail attachments is not the smartest way of doing this. DocRead from Collaboris can help you manage your policies and you\u2019ll become a very smart manager.
