The Documentor facility in LANSA is provided to enable you to generate technical and user documentation for LANSA based applications.

To document a LANSA application, you first prepare a list of the objects and associated subjects to be documented and then specify what is to happen to the generated documentation.

Every document you create has a name and remains in the LANSA system until you delete it.

Objects (e.g. fields, files, processes) which are referenced in a document will be automatically removed from the document if the object is deleted from your LANSA system.

The steps involved in working with documents can be visualized like this:
