Based on
VPAT® 2.5 WCAG 2.2 and Revised Section 508 Edition

This Accessibility Conformance Report presents the results of Laserfiche's accessibility evaluation of Web Client. Conformance was evaluated against WCAG 2.1 (Level A and AA). Success criteria outside the evaluated scope — including later WCAG 2.2 additions and all Level AAA criteria that were not tested — are listed as "Not Evaluated" rather than assigned an untested rating.

How to read this report

Each table below covers one part of the standard. Every row names one accessibility rule (a “criterion”), shows a conformance level, and explains the rating. The conformance levels mean:

Supports
The functionality of the product has at least one method that meets the criterion without known defects or meets with equivalent facilitation.
Partially Supports
Some functionality of the product does not meet the criterion.
Does Not Support
The majority of product functionality does not meet the criterion.
Not Applicable
The criterion is not relevant to the product.
Not Evaluated
The product has not been evaluated against the criterion. This can only be used in WCAG Level AAA criteria.

How we tested: General product knowledge combined with manual testing and testing with assistive technologies such as screen readers to confirm accessible behavior.

Table 1: Success Criteria, Level A

Table 1: Success Criteria, Level A — conformance of Web Client. Each row lists a criterion, the conformance level, and remarks.
CriteriaConformance levelRemarks and explanations
1.1.1: Non-text Content
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Titles of documents, audio, and video are readable by assistive technology, but because repository content is user-generated, captions on video and audio are only present when supplied by the user. Some non-text controls lack names describing their purpose, including the expand/collapse buttons for the side pane on the options, folder browser, and administration pages, the change-column-display and change-view buttons, and the increase/decrease value buttons on the options page.
1.2.1: Audio-only and Video-only (Prerecorded)
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:Multimedia in repositories is user-generated; the availability of transcripts depends on the customer creating them.
1.2.2: Captions (Prerecorded)
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:Multimedia in repositories is user-generated; the availability of captions depends on the customer creating them.
1.2.3: Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded)
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:Multimedia in repositories is user-generated; the availability of audio descriptions depends on the customer creating them.
1.3.1: Info and Relationships
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some table columns cannot be programmatically determined (for example the table on the folder browser page) and some rows cannot be read by a screen reader (the users, fields, and templates tables on the administration page). Folder-tree relationships on the folder browser page are hard to determine with assistive technology, which cannot tell which level the user is on. Some headers are not marked up as headers.
1.3.2: Meaningful Sequence
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:In some cases the DOM order does not match the visual order, such as in the 'more actions' dropdown on the folder browser page; expanding multiple sections at once with the keyboard can cause the visual and DOM order to differ because the expanded sections overlap.
1.3.3: Sensory Characteristics
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some content relies on graphical symbols alone to convey how to operate it; for example, expanding and collapsing sections on the folder browser and options pages is indicated only by a sideways triangle.
1.4.1: Use of Color
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
1.4.2: Audio Control
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:No remarks.
2.1.1: Keyboard
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some content is not keyboard operable; for example the toolbar table on the options page can only be reordered by mouse drag-and-drop, and some selection-menu items (the saved searches menu and the token pickers for fields in legacy view) are not keyboard operable.
2.1.2: No Keyboard Trap
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:When viewing a document through the Office Online integration, the Accessibility Mode button may act as a keyboard trap in certain versions of Office Online.
2.1.4: Character Key Shortcuts
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
2.2.1: Timing Adjustable
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:No remarks.
2.2.2: Pause, Stop, Hide
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:Notification banners can be dismissed with the 'x' button. The loading spinner animation is considered essential because it indicates the function is not frozen.
2.3.1: Three Flashes or Below Threshold
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:The software does not contain anything that flashes more than three times in any one-second period.
2.4.1: Bypass Blocks
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some repeated content cannot be bypassed; for example the auditing-options table and the integrations-tab table on the administration page have no way to skip their rows. Main landmark tags are absent from the folder browser page and there is no skip-to-main-content link, and in the modern template designer the user cannot skip past all the fields.
2.4.2: Page Titled
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some pages lack a title that describes their topic or purpose; for example folder browser page titles simply repeat the name of the folder or entry being viewed.
2.4.3: Focus Order
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
2.4.4: Link Purpose (In Context)
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some links in the folder tree pane on the folder browser page (such as the 'starred' link) cannot be identified by assistive technology, which reads them as 'property page' rather than conveying their destination or purpose.
2.5.1: Pointer Gestures
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:No remarks.
2.5.2: Pointer Cancellation
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some elements are activated on the pointer-down event, such as the drop-down menus on the search filters and options pages.
2.5.3: Label in Name
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:For some user interface components assistive technology does not read the visible label; for example the links in the folder tree pane and certain input fields in the search filters pane do not expose their label to assistive technology.
2.5.4: Motion Actuation
  • Web: Not Applicable
  • Web:There are no motion-based actions in the web client.
3.1.1: Language of Page
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
3.2.1: On Focus
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
3.2.2: On Input
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some elements lose focus during interaction; for example after pressing the 'return' button the 'show annotations' control on the file viewer page loses focus.
3.2.6: Consistent Help
  • Web: Not Evaluated
  • Web:No remarks.
3.3.1: Error Identification
  • Web: Supports
  • Web:No remarks.
3.3.2: Labels or Instructions
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Clicking the breadcrumb on the folder browser page activates a field that has no visible label.
3.3.7: Redundant Entry
  • Web: Not Evaluated
  • Web:No remarks.
4.1.1: Parsing
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some elements are not nested according to their specifications (for example a div that is a child of an unordered list), and some elements contain duplicate ids.
4.1.2: Name, Role, Value
  • Web: Partially Supports
  • Web:Some elements have names or roles that do not sufficiently identify their purpose; for example the expand/collapse section button on the folder browser and options pages is announced as 'section focused'. Some values are not conveyed, such as whether the side pane on the options page is expanded or collapsed.
