MacroView Legal is an out-of-the-box SharePoint structure design that captures metadata important to managing case or matter documents and emails.

The out-of-the-box structure contains the following:

• A single case and matter site collection or a case and matter site collection for each of your business divisions (e.g. HR, Finance, IT, Clients). The example below shows a single site collection for MacroView Clients.
• Each site collection contains sites relevant to that collection. For example, the site collection Clients will contain a SharePoint site for each of your clients (e.g. ACME Fire Department). 
• Each site contains SharePoint document libraries containing matters specific to that client.
• Each matter or case is a document set within a matters library which automatically propagates its metadata such as matter name and matter number etc. to all files stored within it.  
• Each matter document set can optionally contain any number of folders and sub folders.

The above is the default design for MacroView Legal. Your administrator may have configured your solution to be slightly different.

The solution also includes the following features:

• Right-click functions to create new client sites, matter libraries and matter or case document sets
• Matters or cases are created with a standard set of default folders
• Automatic capture of matter or case, email and document metadata
• Standard views with quick and easy filtering and sorting of files based on their metadata
• Email filing rules to automatically save sent and received emails to the correct matter or case
• Search panels for locating documents and emails based on matter or case metadata
