Drawer maintenance

$GLOBAL drawer overview

The
$GLOBAL
 drawer is created in your database with the name of the firm found on the license when FileCabinet CS is installed. Certain documents are designed to be placed within this drawer, and users with the appropriate permissions to access the
$GLOBAL
 drawer can add relevant documents to it as needed. The following are common uses for the
$GLOBAL
 drawer.

Template documents

Use this folder to store any templates that you typically use in FileCabinet CS, such as embedded Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel documents, or company letterhead. When you need to use a document from this drawer, simply copy it from the
Templates
 folder and paste it into the correct drawer and make the necessary edits.

User bulletins

User bulletins for FileCabinet CS list recent changes and enhancements made to the application. Each update to FileCabinet CS adds a new document to this folder. To access the user bulletins, expand the
$GLOBAL
 drawer, and then expand the
FileCabinet CS User Bulletins
 folder.

Viewing UltraTax CS backups

Backups of UltraTax CS documents, system settings, and application settings are stored in the
$GLOBAL
 drawer. You can view backups of UltraTax CS documents, system settings, or application settings.
Expand the
$GLOBAL
 folder, select the
Data Backup
 folder, and then the
UltraTax CS
 folder to see the backups. (If the
UltraTax CS
 folder is not present, this type of backup may not have been created.)
