KM Features: 2 - K Repository

In my previous article in the series, I discussed about file browser. This article will cover the organizational view of DMS.

In the last article, we saw how we can create an online repository of resources that can be accessed by individuals and groups anywhere, anytime. Of course, the access constraints are built in.

Here we see how documents can be put up at a common place and group them according to category rather than common interest groups. I will cover this topic in conjunction with DocMan© (or K Repository) in TeN Trans-e.

Here are a couple of screenshots to start with.

DocManager© - Left Pane DocManager© - Right Pane
DocManager© - Full Pane

Now.. some critical features that should always be there:

  • Categorically Listing of Documents
  • Searching - full text, keyword based, category limited, across categories etc
  • History of recently seen documents for faster access to the ongoing topics of study
  • Bookmarks for quick access to favourites
  • News from across the system to know what going on lately

We will revisit the K Repository dicussing how to put up the documents in this common place.
