Activate/Inactivate file type
While managing files in eTMF, you can create and manage custom file types per your business needs. Sometimes, you might need to make some file types unavailable for selection upon file upload to the system. Thus, you can temporarily inactivate the file type and later activate it and make it available for use.

In the eTMF application header, select the TMF tab.

On the page that opens, in the left pane, select the File Type Setting subtab.
