You can request a specific File from a client. When asking for the File you will determine where the new Record will be created (which Tile), and what the Record Type is. This will create consistency in the storage location for that document across every client who answers the File Request in the Info Request.

Mandatory Items count towards the completion percentage, while Optional Items do not.
Items can be dragged up or down to re-organize their location.
