How to use the Parashift Platform User Interface
Learn the key components of the Parashift User Interface to efficiently navigate the platform, manage documents, configure workflows, and utilize its features for seamless document processing.
The Parashift user interface is designed to be user-friendly and easy to navigate. It features a clean, intuitive layout that allows users to quickly access and use the platform's features and functions. In this introduction, we will explore some of the key aspects of the Parashift user interface and how it can help users be more productive and efficient.
Basic Layout
When you log in and select a tenant, the interface opens the Document Overview page. The layout has four main components:
1. Logo and Tenant Name & Search
- Customize your organization's logo and use the new tenant search to quickly find and access the right tenant.
The tenant search is now integrated with the logo. Click the logo icon to expand the search box and quickly find a tenant.

You can now see the name of the tenant you're currently using directly from your browser tab. ![]()

4. Main Content Area
The main content area dynamically updates based on the selected menu item.
Different Sorting Criteria
Several sorting options are available for sorting documents by various attributes.

View Options
Three different views are available, allowing you to display the level of document detail that best suits your needs.

Default View
Simplest document list view. It displays all essential document information, including the document name, assigned user, document type, status icon, training status, and the date and time the document was uploaded.
Standard View
Displays all information from the Default View, plus the upload source, document owner, language, last updated date, and SLA due date.
Expert View
Includes all information available in the Advanced View, plus the Parashift Document ID. In this view, document statuses are shown as names instead of status icons.
In the bottom-right corner of the page, you can choose how many documents are displayed per page.

Bulk Actions
The bulk action feature allows users to perform actions like bulk classification, deletion, resetting, or copying IDs after selecting multiple documents.

Note that a bulk action will fail an a locked document. You can view and unlock locked documents to proceed with bulk actions.

Search and Filters
There are three ways to search and filter documents.
1. Multi Search Box
The option allows you to quickly locate documents by searching for:
-
Document & Batch ID
-
Document & Batch Name
-
External ID
Simply enter any of these values into the search box to find the corresponding document or batch instantly.

2. Advanced Filters
The Advanced Filters panel, located on the left side of the page, provides more powerful search and filtering options. You can apply multiple filters to narrow down the list of documents or batches based on your specific criteria.

3. Top Bar Filters
The top bar of the main content area includes preset filters for document status (e.g., Pending, Separation, Classification, Extraction, QC, Done, Exported, Failed). Users can also create and save customized filters.

Validation Section
Upon clicking the "Validation" section in the left sidebar, the user is presented with five sub-sections. The first sub-section, "Overview," opens a list of all documents within the tenant in the main content area. This list provides an overview of the documents, including their names, creation dates, statuses, and more.
The remaining four sub-sections are:
- Separation
- Classification

These sub-sections help users view and manage documents in each stage of the workflow without searching through the entire list. Users can perform actions related to those stages, such as editing or annotating document content.
