Creating Content
Fusion provides a number of features for creating
information:
Document Types – in addition to standard
document files, Fusion supports two special document types: logical
and complex documents. A complex document consists of a number of
files attached to a single database record. Optionally, one file can be
marked as primary so that if you launch the complex document, the
primary file is the one that is opened. A logical document is similar to
a table of contents and holds a hierachical structure with links to
standard or complex documents.
Electronic Forms – Authorize users access
electronic HTML forms to add new records to the system. Electronic forms
provide data lookups and validation to ensure accuracy.
Templates –Templates help with indexing new
documents or creating new records by storing default metadata that can
then be used when a user adds new information to the system.
Indexing (inserting a new document) – A
single file or a collection of files can be indexed into the system.
Macros and templates can be used to automate data entry.
Related Information – Relationships can be
created between content, thus providing authorized users with easy
access to all information associated with a document.
Attaching – A file or collection of files
can be attached to an existing record.
References – References can be added between
documents to, for example, group related information together.
