4. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Document Management Document management controls the life cycle of documents in your organization — how they are created, reviewed, published, and consumed, and how they are ultimately disposed of or retained. Although the term "management" implies top-down control of information, an effective document management system should reflect the culture of the organization using it. The tools you use for document management should be flexible, allowing you to tightly control documents' life cycles if that fits your enterprise's culture and goals, but also letting you implement a more loosely structured system if that better suits your enterprise.

5. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Document Management A well-designed document management system promotes finding and sharing information easily. It organizes content in a logical way, and makes it easy to standardize content creation and presentation across an enterprise. It promotes knowledge management and information mining. It helps your organization meet its legal responsibilities. It provides features at each stage of a document's life cycle, from template creation to document authoring, reviewing, publishing, auditing, and ultimately destroying or archiving.

7. Saturday, August 30, 2008 The Planning Process The document management planning process consists of the following major steps: 1.Identify document management roles Ensure that your plans incorporate the feedback of your organization's key stakeholders, that you have the right team in place to implement the solution, and that you know who will participate in document management processes. 2.Analyze document usage After you identify who works on documents, determine the types of documents they work on and how they will be used. For more information. 3.Plan the organization of documents You can organize documents in libraries, team sites, and portal sites. Office SharePoint Server 2007 offers a range of document organizing and storing features, from specialized sites such as the Records Repository to free-form document libraries for ad-hoc document creation and collaboration. Within a library, you can further organize content into folders and subfolders. For more information. Cont…

8. Saturday, August 30, 2008 The Planning Process 4.Plan how content moves between locations It may be necessary to move or copy a document from one site or library to another at different stages of its life cycle. For example, the publishing process may include moving a document from a staging site to a public Internet site. If content needs to be converted from one format to another as it moves from site to site, you will also want to plan content conversions. 5.Plan content types Use content types to organize information about types of documents, such as metadata, document templates, policies, and workflow processes. This is an essential step to help you organize your documents and enforce consistency across your organization. 6.Plan content control You can plan the appropriate degree of control for each content type and storage location. For example, for a document library you can plan to require check-in and check-out and to protect documents from unauthorized distribution by using Information Rights Management. For more information.

9. Saturday, August 30, 2008 The Planning Process 7. Plan workflows By planning workflows for your organization, you can control and track how documents move from one team member to another as each participant collaborates in a document's life cycle. Office SharePoint Server 2007 includes workflows for common team tasks such as reviewing and approving documents. Office SharePoint Server 2007 also supports creating and installing custom workflows. 8.Plan policies For each content type, plan information management policies to ensure that documents are properly audited, retained, labeled, and otherwise handled according to your organization's institutional and legal requirements. Office SharePoint Server 2007 includes policies that implement auditing, document retention, labeling, and barcodes (to ensure that printed content can be correlated with corresponding versions in document libraries).

10. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Identify document management participants and stakeholders The first step in your document management planning is to determine the stakeholders and participants in your document management solution. You can use a survey to collect this information. For example, your survey might contain the following questions: Who in your organization creates documents? What types of documents do they create? Who reviews documents? Who edits documents? Who uses documents? Who approves the publication of documents? Who designs Web sites used for hosting documents? Who sets guidelines and policies for managing documents? Who manages records in your organization? Who deploys and maintains the servers on which documents are stored?

12. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Analyze Document Usage After you identify your content stakeholders, collect information from them that will help you analyze how documents are used in your organization. This is an important part of the planning process because the analysis helps you determine: How document libraries are structured. Which site templates to use. How many sites you will need. Which information management policies to apply to the sites. Which physical server topology you will need to implement your solution.

13. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Plan document libraries Document libraries are collections of files on Microsoft Office. As part of document management planning, you should determine the document libraries that best fit your organization's needs. When you identify which document libraries best match your organization's needs, you might also determine that you need multiple sites or site collections. For example, if you are authoring content for publication to external customers, you might need one site (and library) in which to author and review content and a separate site. When you plan document libraries over multiple sites, you may also need to plan how content flows from one site to another — by manual processes, workflows, or custom solutions.

14. Saturday, August 30, 2008 Plan Flow of Content When you plan document libraries, therefore, also plan the flow of content from one library or site to another. You can create custom workflows that copy or move content from one site or library to another. A workflow guides a document through a business process, assigning tasks to participants as their role in the document's life cycle becomes active. A workflow can be designed to move a document from one site or library to another. Authors can copy a document to a library in any site in which they have authoring permissions. The relationship between the source and the destination document is maintained so that the copy can be refreshed as needed. Web pages and entire Web sites can be staged and published from one site to another either manually or automatically based on a schedule.

18. Document Management (Word processor) A word processor (more formally known as document preparation system) is a computer application used for the production (including composition, editing, formatting, and possibly printing) of any sort of printable material. Microsoft Word is the most widely used computer word processing system; Microsoft estimates over five hundred million people use the Office suite, which includes Word. There are also many other commercial word processing applications, such as WordPerfect, which dominated the market from the mid- 1980s to early-1990s, particularly for machines running Microsoft's MS-DOS operating system. Open-source applications such as OpenOffice.org Writer and KWord(Linux) are rapidly gaining in popularity KWord

Graduate and doctoral students continue this trend, as well as creating works for research and publication.
