How to Modify the Documoto User-Interface with Labels

Administrators can customize Documoto’s interface by modifying system labels. Labels allow you to replace standard naming conventions (e.g., “Books” → “Machines”) so that the platform aligns with your company or industry terminology.

Article Topics

Why Use Labels?

Different industries often use different terms for the same concept. For example:

  • Documoto defaults: Book → Chapter → Page
  • Your company might prefer: Machine → Section → Assembly

By customizing labels, you ensure a consistent user experience.
