Start with a question or a command
Ask a question to find workspace information, or choose a command to change something. The assistant uses the information and permissions available in your current workspace. Open the linked record to inspect the original and current status.
- Questions: ask about documents needing review, recent uploads, failed emails, plan capacity, or storage connection.
- Commands: type / to see supported workflows, or use the quick-command buttons below the composer.
- Be specific: include a filename, folder, person, or date when relevant. Select the correct result if several items match.
Know when an action is submitted
Read each command form before completing it. Some completed slash-command forms submit their action directly after validation; a second confirmation card is not guaranteed. Other flows show Review and Confirm controls. Follow the controls actually shown.
- Check the selected files, destination, recipient, account, and values before the final step.
- Use Edit, Back, or Cancel where offered while preparing the action.
- Once submitted, watch the action result. Closing the assistant is not a reliable way to cancel an operation already started.
- An answer describing an action is not proof that it succeeded. Look for the operation’s result and check the affected page.
Find commands and use the keyboard
- / opens the command choices; typing filters them.
- The eight command groups are /rename, /move, /classify, /folders, /email, /team, /lexware, and /payables.
- Arrow keys move through choices; Enter selects or continues. Shift + Enter adds a new line.
- Esc goes back or closes the current control. Backspace returns to a previous field in command flows that support it.
- Open Keyboard beside Help for the current shortcuts. Command names also have German, French, and Turkish versions; English command names remain recognized.
Rename one file — /rename
- Search for and select the existing document. Verify its current name and folder.
- Enter the new filename and inspect it before completing the command.
- The existing extension is preserved when omitted. Slashes, control characters, empty names, unchanged names, and overlong names are rejected.
- Check the result for the old and new names. Renaming does not edit the document’s contents.
Move selected files — /move
- Search existing workspace files and select the documents you want to move. Check selections across result pages.
- Choose a destination from the folder picker. Open nested folders when needed and verify the full path.
- Review the selected files and destination, then complete the move using the displayed controls.
- The action checks current file availability and compatible storage. A move is not a general transfer between different storage providers.
- Read each file’s outcome. Some files can succeed while others fail.
Attach and classify files — /classify
- Use + or drag files into the composer. Review attachment names and remove unintended files before sending.
- Choose Auto classify to let AI choose a destination, or select an available destination in your folder structure.
- Add optional instructions when you need to explain the document. A folder structure must be available for destination selection.
- The upload and processing flow checks supported files, size limits, active-file allowances, and required consent or connections.
- Watch the per-file progress. A successful upload does not mean classification is already complete. Review the result in Documents.
Handle oversized files, duplicates, and failed uploads
- If an eligible PDF or image is too large, use Optimize when offered. Review the optimized output before using it.
- A duplicate warning means the app found matching content; inspect the existing document before choosing Upload anyway.
- Retry a failed file or use Retry failed files for the failed group. Check the error first and fix connection, quota, or file problems.
- If the source attachment is no longer available for retry, attach the original again.
Choose or reset a folder structure — /folders
The Folders command includes Choose folder structure, Add folder, Edit folder settings, Reorder folders, Manage custom fields, Delete custom folder, and Reset folder structure.
- Choose folder structure opens the folder setup workflow. Review the template before applying it.
- Delete custom folder and Reset folder structure open the relevant page controls; selecting a shortcut alone does not prove that deletion or reset occurred.
- Read the destination page’s impact and confirmation before applying a destructive change.
Create a folder — /folders → Add folder
- Enter a clear folder name, then choose its behavior and any naming fields.
- Add positive keywords that describe documents belonging here, and negative keywords for similar documents that do not.
- The owner can create folders, subject to the workspace custom-folder limit. Duplicate top-level names are rejected.
- Check the resulting folder in Folder tree. Creating a folder does not automatically move all existing documents into it.
Edit folder behavior and keywords
- Select the existing folder before editing its settings.
- Behavior controls how documents are organized. Naming fields provide values used to build folder names where supported.
- Positive keywords help identify relevant documents; negative keywords help distinguish exclusions. They are guidance for classification, not a guarantee based on one word.
- Review the changed settings before submitting. Updating keywords is separate from moving a file.
Reorder folders and manage custom fields
- Reorder folders: inspect the proposed order and apply it with the displayed control. This changes ordering, not file contents.
- Manage custom fields: review the existing field list before adding or editing a key, label, description, and type.
- Explain what the field should extract. Use it in supported folder naming or file-naming configuration when you want it to affect names.
- Folder and custom-field changes require the workspace owner.
Create a sending automation — /email
- Select Create rule, name it, and choose the source folder.
- Choose the connected sender, recipient, and available schedule: instant, daily, weekly, or monthly.
- Check the destination address and whether the rule will be enabled before completing the form.
- Only the organization owner can manage sending automations. The plan must include the feature and have capacity for another rule.
- A disconnected sender must be connected or reconnected before continuing.
Enable or disable an email rule
- Use /email and select Enable rule or Disable rule.
- Select the exact existing rule and inspect its name before submitting.
- Enabling allows the rule to run according to its configured behavior. Disabling pauses the rule; it does not recall previously sent messages.
- Check Automated Sending for the rule’s current state and delivery results. /email manages automations; manual document emails use their own compose flow.
Invite and manage teammates — /team
- Invite member: enter the intended email address and review it before sending the invitation. Only the organization owner can invite.
- Enable member or Disable member: select an existing teammate. These actions require owner or admin access.
- Plan access and available seats still apply. Existing membership, pending invitations, or another organization can prevent an invitation.
- You cannot disable your own account or the organization owner. Disabling a member changes access; it is not an instruction to delete their documents.
Connect Lexware and check its status — /lexware
- Choose Connect and follow the dedicated connection form. Use its credential field rather than including an API key in a normal chat message.
- Connection management requires an eligible owner or individual account and plan access.
- Choose Status to inspect the connection. Reconnect or resolve credential errors before importing or exporting.
- Choose Disconnect to remove the integration connection through its action flow. This is separate from deleting records already held by Lexware.
Import from and export to Lexware
- Import: select the Lexware resource, then choose the destination offered by the flow or automatic classification.
- Export: select an eligible workspace document and verify it is the intended accounting document.
- Review queued and duplicate counts. Queued means the transfer job was accepted; check Lexware for the eventual result.
- Connection, feature access, resource availability, and document eligibility can block an operation.
Manage reminders — /payables
- Choose the reminders action and select the intended invoice.
- Review the reminder date, due date, amount, currency, and available reminder channels.
- Complete the displayed decision and check the reminder status in invoice tracking.
- A scheduled reminder is not a sent reminder or a completed payment. Resolve failed reminders from the displayed error.
Update payment status and due dates
- Use /payables → Payment status to choose an invoice and apply the available status decision.
- Use Due dates to choose an invoice and enter the corrected due date.
- Review the selected document and values before completing the action.
- These actions update tracking information. They do not transfer money or rewrite the original PDF. Connected accounting data may have its own source of truth.
Understand permissions and prerequisites
- The assistant acts within the signed-in account, organization, plan, and connected services.
- A missing feature may require a different plan; a role restriction requires an authorized teammate and is not fixed by upgrading.
- Some commands need a folder structure, available seats, a connected sender, accessible storage, or a Lexware connection. Follow the prerequisite shown.
- If your account or organization changes while preparing an action, start it again so the selection belongs to the correct workspace.
- When no matching item appears, check your search, active workspace, and access. The assistant should not guess which record you meant.
Read successes, failures, and partial results
- Read each action’s result, not just the conversational reply. Open the affected page to inspect the outcome.
- For a partial move, successful files stay successful; the action retry targets the remaining failed files.
- Fix the stated cause before retrying: missing resource, permission, connection, quota, duplicate, or invalid input.
- A page-refresh failure can happen after an action succeeded. Check the record before submitting the same change again.
- Do not assume an Undo action exists. Use the feature’s available controls to correct a completed change.
Practice with Explore actions
Explore actions runs read-only demonstrations with sample data. Its rename, move, email-rule, team, Lexware, payable, and folder examples help you understand the forms and results. Demo success does not mean your workspace changed.
Use Help and related guides
Help beside Keyboard opens the feature-guide catalog without sending your composer text. Previous and Next move through the guide sequence. Use the related feature guides for full page behavior, including document actions, folder naming, email delivery, invoice tracking, and storage permissions.
