Handle everyday Docu tasks in conversation

AI assistant › Conversation

Create folders, request signatures, start workflows, decide your own workflow tasks and record terminations already sent, with clarification, preview and approval.

Step by step

  1. Specify the action and document title, folder path or workflow name. Identify internal signatories by name and external signatories by name and email.
  2. Resolve ambiguous matches using the readable suggestions, then add the decision, dates and options. Specify / for a top-level folder; explicitly confirm starting a workflow without a document.
  3. Check the preview and approve it. Unless specified otherwise, signatures use the form defaults: simple, no signing order, 14 days.

Translate a document and compare versions

Docu | base › Open a document › “AI: translate and compare”

Translates the recognised text of a document into German, French, Italian or English and saves the translation as a PDF – as a linked copy or as a new version. “Compare versions” calculates the differences between two versions and has the AI explain them briefly.

Step by step

  1. Open the document and expand “AI: translate and compare”.
  2. To translate, choose the language and how to save it (copy or new version), then “Translate”.
  3. To compare, choose the older and the newer version, then “Explain differences”.

My migration runs

KI · docu_umstieg_stand

Import a folder, ZIP or rights CSV without a per-run limit. Small upload packages are saved. The Docu per-file limit and tenant storage quota, including temporary storage, still apply.

Step by step

  1. After an interruption, reopen the same run. For missing uploads, select the same source and rights CSV again. Confirmed parts are skipped. Import continues in the background after closing the page; the Docu job processes subsequent stages.

Step by step
