Configuring Evidence Types

In general, an administrator creates a new dynamic evidence type by configuring its name, logical name, effective period, and a group name that is used to contain security identifiers for the evidence type.

Once created, the system automatically creates a new version of the evidence type. Administrators must then edit the metadata for the newly created version using the Dynamic Evidence Editor. The editor is used to create all of the evidence pages that relate to the new evidence type. This includes designing how the pages will appear in the evidence workspace. When each evidence type is configured and its metadata has been designed in the editor, it is activated in order to make it available for association with cases. For a detailed explanation of how to configure dynamic evidence types, see the Cúram Dynamic Evidence Configuration Guide.
