Question
alternate method(s) of managing Documentum references? Or, My WDK compatibility woes...
Hiya,
We are using Documentum/Webtop. 90%+ of our authors are Webtop-only users.
There are a very small number of users who regularly manage assemblies
(adding references to articles, moving articles within the assembly, etc.)
with Arbortext's Documentum/WDK Adapter.
The compatibility nightmare of Arbortext vs. Webtop vs. Internet Explorer
is challenging.
We do know how to manage assemblies using a text editor (check something
out without descendants and copy/paste the entities and Documentum object
ID references, etc. into a different checked out file), but we have balked
at asking users to do so since it is much more "programmery" than the WDK's
"intuitive" GUI point-click-drag-paste.
Are there other non-WDK strategies that might be more friendly to less
techy authors that you all are using?
