Summary
Archer announces the General Availability of Document Governance Release August 5th, 2026.
Release Details
This release improves reviewer notification emails, lets document authors add metadata fields to document footers, and includes other performance enhancements.
More Context in Reviewer Emails
Notification emails sent when a document advances to a review stage now include the document, version, review stage, and draft, with a "View Details" link that takes reviewers directly to their assigned review draft instead of the general document overview. Deduplication rules still apply, so each user receives only one email per review draft.
Add Metadata Fields to Document Footers
Document authors can now insert document metadata values directly into the footer using the calculated fields tool.
How it works:
- The field picker only shows metadata fields assigned to the document's document type.
- Field values are resolved at print time; if a required field hasn't been filled in yet, the footer shows the field's placeholder until a value is entered.
Release Window
We will be performing the upgrade on August 5th, 2026 between 9:00PM-12:00AM CT.
