## 1. Overview
|
||||
|
||||
A Document represents a real historical artifact the user wants to describe, organize, and eventually transcribe. The user should be able to create a Document before uploading or linking any source files.

## 11. Non-Goals for This Flow
|
||||
## 11. Read Document Journey
|
||||
|
||||
The Create Document flow does not:
|
||||
1. upload document images or PDFs
|
||||
2. create transcription jobs
|
||||
3. start AI processing
|
||||
4. create Source rows directly
|
||||
5. edit page-level transcription content
|
||||
### 11.1 User Intent
|
||||
|
||||
Those actions belong to later workflows.
|
||||
The user wants to open a specific Document and quickly understand:
|
||||
1. what the document is
|
||||
2. which people are linked to it
|
||||
3. whether sources exist
|
||||
4. whether jobs exist
|
||||
5. what the next action should be
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Relationship to Other Workflows
|
||||
### 11.2 Entry Points
|
||||
|
||||
This Document creation workflow should precede:
|
||||
1. adding Sources to a Document
|
||||
2. creating transcription Jobs
|
||||
3. reviewing raw transcription output
|
||||
4. editing revised transcription text
|
||||
5. linking additional people or recipients later
|
||||
A user can reach a Document detail page by:
|
||||
1. selecting a document from the Document page list
|
||||
2. being redirected after successfully creating a new document
|
||||
3. following a direct link to a known Document record
|
||||
|
||||
## 13. Relationship to Schema Mapping
|
||||
### 11.3 Document Detail Layout
|
||||
|
||||
The Document detail page should include:
|
||||
1. a header area with document name, document type, and key date values
|
||||
2. a metadata section with location_created, notes, and archive_identifier
|
||||
3. system metadata where created_at and updated_at are shown as read-only values
|
||||
4. a related people section
|
||||
5. a Sources section
|
||||
6. a Jobs section
|
||||
|
||||
The Document detail page should support:
|
||||
1. empty-state messaging when no related records exist
|
||||
2. clear next actions from each empty state
|
||||
3. future links to filtered Sources and Jobs views scoped to the current document
|
||||
|
||||
### 11.4 Read Empty States
|
||||
|
||||
If no related records exist:
|
||||
1. People section says no linked people yet
|
||||
2. Sources section says no sources added yet
|
||||
3. Jobs section says no jobs created yet
|
||||
4. each section presents one clear next action
|
||||
|
||||
### 11.5 Read Success Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
A successful Read experience means:
|
||||
1. user can identify the Document immediately
|
||||
2. user can see whether work has started
|
||||
3. user can navigate directly to document-scoped Jobs and Sources workflows
|
||||
|
||||
## 12. Update Document Journey
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.1 User Intent
|
||||
|
||||
The user wants to correct or enrich metadata after creation without touching jobs or source transcriptions directly.
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.2 Update Entry Point
|
||||
|
||||
From the Document detail page:
|
||||
1. user selects Edit document
|
||||
2. UI opens edit mode or a dedicated edit view
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.3 Editable Fields
|
||||
|
||||
First release editable fields:
|
||||
1. name
|
||||
2. document_type
|
||||
3. document_date
|
||||
4. document_date_raw
|
||||
5. location_created
|
||||
6. notes
|
||||
7. archive_identifier
|
||||
|
||||
Read-only or system-managed fields:
|
||||
1. id
|
||||
2. created_at
|
||||
3. updated_at
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.4 Update Validation Rules
|
||||
|
||||
1. name remains required
|
||||
2. document_type remains required
|
||||
3. document_date and document_date_raw may both be present
|
||||
4. if both date fields are present, document_date remains canonical
|
||||
5. validation errors should be shown inline and block save
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.5 Update Save Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
On save:
|
||||
1. system validates form data
|
||||
2. system persists Document updates
|
||||
3. updated_at is refreshed by system policy
|
||||
4. UI shows a confirmation message
|
||||
5. user remains on Document detail page with refreshed values
|
||||
|
||||
### 12.6 Update Failure Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
If save fails:
|
||||
1. show a clear error message
|
||||
2. keep user edits in form where possible
|
||||
3. do not show stale success messaging
|
||||
4. allow retry without losing context
|
||||
|
||||
## 13. Delete Document Journey
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.1 User Intent
|
||||
|
||||
The user wants to remove a Document only when it is safe and unambiguous.
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.2 Delete Entry Point
|
||||
|
||||
From the Document detail page:
|
||||
1. user selects Delete document
|
||||
2. UI opens a confirmation dialog explaining permanence
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.3 Delete Guardrails
|
||||
|
||||
Delete is allowed only when:
|
||||
1. the Document has no related Source records
|
||||
2. the Document has no related Job records
|
||||
|
||||
Delete is blocked when:
|
||||
1. any Source exists for the Document
|
||||
2. any Job exists for the Document
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.4 Blocked Delete UX
|
||||
|
||||
When blocked:
|
||||
1. show an explicit reason that related Jobs or Sources exist
|
||||
2. show which dependency types are present
|
||||
3. provide links to filtered Sources and Jobs for cleanup
|
||||
4. keep the Document unchanged
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.5 Allowed Delete UX
|
||||
|
||||
When allowed:
|
||||
1. show final confirmation with document name
|
||||
2. perform delete
|
||||
3. show success confirmation
|
||||
4. return user to Document page list
|
||||
|
||||
### 13.6 Delete Failure Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
If delete fails due to system error:
|
||||
1. show a clear error message
|
||||
2. keep user on Document detail page
|
||||
3. preserve ability to retry
|
||||
|
||||
## 14. Non-Goals for This Flow
|
||||
|
||||
The Document journey does not define:
|
||||
1. Source upload field-level UX
|
||||
2. Job execution internals
|
||||
3. revision editor behavior for transcriptions
|
||||
4. multi-person recipient workflows in first release
|
||||
|
||||
## 15. Relationship to Other Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
This Document workflow integrates with:
|
||||
1. Sources workflow for adding pages or files to the document
|
||||
2. Jobs workflow for transcription execution
|
||||
3. Person workflow for future expansion beyond one optional linked person
|
||||
|
||||
## 16. Relationship to Schema Mapping

||||

||||

## 17. Deferred Items
