DMS - Glossary

content

SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW)
Application documents administrated by the SAP Knowledge Provider

Example

An HTML page contains a GIF. This means the document consists of two files; an HTML
file and a GIF file. Together, they make up the content of the HTML page, which is
administrated as a physical document. The two files are two units of content.

--------------------------------------------------
content category

Document Management Services (R/3) (BC-SRV-KPR-DMS) The category enables a logical
view of the application to the physical storage data of the contents of the physical
documents. This makes the administration data of the physical documents independent
of the storage medium used. Precisely one content cateogry is assigned to each
physical document. To go from the physical document to the storage data, each
content category is mapped to precisely one content repository.

Example

The SAP Knowledge Warehouse defines different content categories for different
languages and releases. When a new physical document is created, the SAP Knowledge
Warehouse can specify the abstract concept of the content category angeben, without
having to take into account the special characteristics of the underlying storage
medium. For the application it does not matter, whether at runtime the content of
the physical documents are stored in a database or in an external archive

--------------------------------------------------
Content Management Service

Content Management Service (BC-SRV-KPR-CMS)
Element of the SAP Knowledge Provider (KPro).

The Content Management Service allows the application-specific and problem-related
integration and administration of different types of content and cache servers.
--------------------------------------------------
content model

Document Management Services (R/3) (BC-SRV-KPR-DMS)
Definition of the meaning of the concept of the document in the context of a
particular document management system. Definition of the relationship of
administrative data to documents.
--------------------------------------------------
content object

SAP Knowledge Warehouse (BC-DOC-IWB)
Info object containing any kind of content information.
--------------------------------------------------
content relationship

Document Management Services (R/3) (BC-SRV-KPR-DMS)
An example of a special relationship class which has been pre-defined by SAP
Knowledge Provider (KPro).

If changes to the content of an existing physical document result in the creation of
a new physical document, a relationship is created in KPro between these two
physical documents. This is defined as a content relationship. Both physical
documents have to belong to the same logical document.
--------------------------------------------------
content repository

Content Management Service (BC-SRV-KPR-CMS) The Repository is an SAP Knowledge
Provider administration unit for mapping physical storage media.
Different storage media can be accessed. (e.g. database, archive), that represent
different types of content repositories. Only one content server can be assigned to
one content repository. But there can be several content repositories assigned to
one server.
--------------------------------------------------
content repository

SAP Knowledge Warehouse (BC-DOC-IWB)
Storage place for information objects within the Knowledge Workbench. There are
three types of repository: Knowledge Warehouse Local Repository Local System

--------------------------------------------------

content server

Content Management Service (BC-SRV-KPR-CMS)
Physiscal view of storage device.

The SAP Knowledge Provider (KPro) can use different physical storage devices. These
are called content servers. One content server can be used for several content
repositories.

Example:

If the texts created for the SAP System Application Help are stored on an HTTP
content server, this represents a content server together with all the software
components required to access the documents. Several content repositories may exist
at the same time on the same system.

----------------------------------------------------
Content Server Cache

Content Management Service (BC-SRV-KPR-CMS)
Server that is used when access requests are being processed to gain quick access to
document content.

----------------------------------------------------
content unit

Content Management Service (BC-SRV-KPR-CMS)
Smallest unit of a document managed by the SAP Knowledge Provider (KPro)

On the administration only one component is assigned to each content unit.

Example:

An HTML file is a content unit.
----------------------------------------------------
content version

Document Management System (CA-DMS)
Version of an original application file. A content version is saved automatically by
the system.

When you define document statuses for a document type, you define when a content
version is created. You can list all the content versions of a document by
displaying the status log.
----------------------------------------------------
content version

SAP Knowledge Warehouse (BC-DOC-IWB)
Version created when a content object is maintained
----------------------------------------------------
content versioning

Document Management Services (R/3) (BC-SRV-KPR-DMS)
Function for saving and managing physical documents in SAP which are created by
changing the content of the component of an already existing physical document.

Content relationships are used to create the content versioning.
----------------------------------------------------
context

SAP Knowledge Warehouse (BC-DOC-IWB)
Set of parameters used in the SAP Knowledge Warehouse to control which document
versions (language, release, and so on) can be accessed.
