About Binder Templates

Some binder templates include planned documents. When Vault creates a binder from these templates, it also creates attached documents, which can take some time. Vault will notify you when the binder and planned documents are created.

About Create Binder Permission

To create a binder, you must have the Create Binder Permission. This permission is granted by document type, so you will see the option to create a binder if you have the permission for at least one document type. When you classify the binder, you will only see the document types for which you have this permission.
