Help with simple scenario

parki

Hello!

I have alfresco working on HSQL, and am testing and playing with it. I'm new to documnent management, so wondering if someone can help me get a quick start -

I'm hoping to use alfresco for document management in my company - my main requirement right now is to manage uploaded content (mainly work DOC files, perhaps some PDF). I want to allow the users to upload content, and also tag this content with some predefined categorization (and scrape the content for searching).

Is there a quick howto to describe how I might set up a test space to do this?

Any help/advice appreciated.

Many thanks.

… perhaps I should be more clear - I want to present the categorization to the user when uploading, so it's always done for every uploaded file.

The example tutorial (which is excellent by the way) only covers off adding categorization after the fact.

If I'm making any sense. 🙂

Workflow:

User adds content.
User finds content in the file system, likely *.pdf
User is presented a screen to apply some set of categorization tags
Content is tagged accordingly.

Help!???

Over 80 views of this and not one person can help me?

I would think this is a simple little issue.

Any help is appreciated - I just want to add searchable metadata to uploaded files to be able to search.

Please - can someone take 2 minutes out to help?

Thanks.

Yes this is all possible. Basically you need to perform a few steps:

. Define a model with your custom aspect containing your "tag" property (probably a multi-value d:text property if you want the users to be able to add various strings)
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Data_Dictionary_Guide

. Create a Content Rule that adds the Aspect to your appropriate document types when they are added to the repository (INBOUND rule). You probably want to add the rule wih the "Apply rule to sub spaces" option to the Company Home space if you want ALL document uploads (even via FTP or CIFS etc.) to any folder to have the custom aspect.

. Customise the web-client interface to display your custom property in the properties page that is displayed at the end of the Upload File wizard.

. Customise the web-client Search to automatically search on your tag attributes OR customise Advanced Search to display you tag attribute as a custom search field in the Advanced Search screen.

Hope this helps!

Sorry but I used: "please" and "tanks a lot" and the MAIUSC was referred to my discouragement… It wouldn't be a discourteous message…

Sorry again for the misunderstanding.

I will open a new post for my problem.
