Managing documents
The Document Manager portlet and Document Libraries portlet provide a central document repository for team collaboration.
This section presents an overall picture of the document management environment provided in WebSphere Portal Express. Documents created by Document Manager can be used by Web Content Management and can be the subject of business rules developed with Personalization.
Using the Document Libraries portlet and Document Manager portlet, you can create and configure document libraries to organize files and folders in a central working repository for documents.
