In addition to the general purpose Season Documents folder, specialized category folders are accessed from a dropdown menu.  For these folders, SID provides an embedded viewer to display browser compatible documents in-place.

The Sports Information Desk includes a capability to store and organize external documents associated with your Season.  This feature enables you to continue using your existing software to create documents, while also providing an efficient, season oriented means to organize, store, create and access these external documents. 

For example, you can include Microsoft Word Documents, Adobe PDF files, and video files within a Season and its underlying folders.  Adding these files is as simple as dragging them from your other applications or from Windows folders and dropping them in SID's Document Panel.  You can also create new external documents from within SID with a click of your mouse button. 

If you are familiar with Microsoft's Windows Explorer program, then you know how to use SID's Document Panel. 

This design feature provides a more natural, document-centric means of managing your sports information and enables a Season to encompass ALL of your related sports information.  Your sports information management for any Season is performed from a single, centralized access point - the Sports Information Desk.

Recruiters, sports information directors and other administrative personnel will especially appreciate the External Documents feature as it relates to managing and accessing their media guides, press releases, news articles, and other documents.  In an administrative environment where multiple sports are managed,  the Sports Information Desk enables quick, organized access to documents and files for any Season.

For the specialized folders (e.g., Press Releases, News Articles, and Gallery), the Documents Panel also includes an embedded browser/viewer.  Whenever you select a document or other file in the folder's list view, the contents are displayed in the viewer area.  You do not need to open the document/file in its parent application to view it.  Note that only files displayable in Microsoft's Internet Explorer will display in the embedded viewer.

Using Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser you can easily capture Internet articles in their entirety and save them within the News Articles folder.  When you select a file from the list, the article's contents (including graphics) is immediately displayed in the integrated viewer.
