The home page
The Home Page gives you access to the application's main objects (Articles, Tooling, Workflows, Documents and Parts), to carry out a quick search or to access the workflow tasks that have been assigned to you.
It also allows you to create objects or start workflows in just a few clicks.
You can return to the Aletiq home page at any time by clicking on the Aletiq logo in the top left-hand corner.
Files
💡 Aletiq offers a Document Management space, allowing you to manage numerous files in their native format (e.g. Word, Excel, Publisher, images, video). The PDM module can manage CAD files.
In Aletiq, a file is contextualised by links to different objects in the application. A change in documentation? The PLM facilitates your impact analysis thanks to links with articles, tooling and other documents.
The Files button provides access to the document management area and the PDM:
👉 Documents, to visualize or modify a document
👉 Parts (CAD) to viusalize or modify CAD files
👉 Standard parts to modify standard parts such as screws, bolts, nuts, etc...
Focus on the Details Pane
Certain items in the app—like Documents, Production Orders, or Parts—have a Details Panel. This panel lets you quickly view all the key info about that item: its properties, past actions, workflows, related products, and linked documents.
Workflows
💡 A workflow is a series of tasks designed to facilitate the monitoring and completion of a process (e.g. validation of a document evolution) in a simple, rapid and digitized way. Aletiq enables documents to be signed electronically.
The Workflows section helps you design, track, and manage your team’s processes. You can see what’s in progress and easily check in with colleagues if needed.
The Workflows button provides access to:
👉 All the workflows in progress
👉Workflow models management, to facilitate the creation of workflows for standardized processes (e.g. change requests)
👉 Workflow Analysis module
Products
Articles
💡 An article is a product reference, SKU, finished product, semi-finished product or component. In Aletiq, an article is linked to various objects (documents, parts, workflows, manufacturing processes, passports, etc.) which contextualises the information and make it easier to manage.
The Articles section allows you to create and manage your article references, the associated technical data and track Passports (production orders).
The Articles button gives you access to:
👉 the article database
👉 all the associated passports (or production orders)
👉 create a new article
An Article File provides access to information about the object:
👉 Definition and Manufacturing process
👉 Properties
👉 Associated objects (documents, CAD, etc)
👉 Production orders
Toolings
💡 A Tooling is a means of production. In Aletiq, it is possible to manage the technical data for a tool designed in-house. It is linked to various objects (documents, parts, workflows, manufacturing processes, passports, etc.) which contextualise the information and make it easier to manage.
The Tooling section lets you create and manage your tooling or production resources, the associated technical data and track passports (production orders).
The Tooling button gives you access to:
👉 the database of Tooling on your site
👉 all the associated passports
👉 create a new tool
The structure of the Tooling File is similar to that of the Article File.
Projects
A Project is a group of tasks with a clear start and end date, often involving one or more products.
At the start, you define what needs to be delivered (like documents or parts) and produce these throughout the project.
In the Projects section, you can:
👉 view all current projects
👉 use project templates to quickly set up standardized projects
Quick search
Aletiq’s Quick Search lets you find information across the entire database in seconds—just type your query into the search bar and press Enter ↩️.
