Manage content through enterprise library services

LiveCycle Content Services ES offers comprehensive library services that can be leveraged with other LiveCycle solution components. You can create content spaces to easily share and collaborate on content development as part of your overarching business processes. Avoid compromising other people's work by versioning content and using check-in/checkout capabilities to update it. The software keeps a complete audit history of all actions taken on content, helping to reduce the risk of compliance issues.

With Adobe LiveCycle Process Management ES software, your team can easily implement end-to-end processes that interact extensively with content created at any point in the process. Processes can thus be initiated based on content events, such as the addition of a mortgage application or a claims form to the content repository. Within process tasks, process participants can generate content that is automatically managed by LiveCycle Content Services ES, such as the creation of documentation on new drugs as part of a New Drug Introduction process. Moreover, process steps can be easily configured to wait for content events before proceeding to the next step.

LiveCycle Content Services ES enables your business processes and applications to archive content such as user-submitted form data and converted PDF files based on your established retention policies. When used in combination with Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator ES or LiveCycle Output ES software, this content can also be converted into PDF/A before it is archived.

LiveCycle Content Services ES is tightly integrated with LiveCycle PDF Generator ES, enabling automatic conversion of content into PDF. For instance, you can configure a content space so that as content matching specific criteria is updated or added to the repository, the content is instantly converted into PDF. Content can also be manipulated through a series of transformation services for more complex transformations, such as automatically assembling a set of documents within a shared space into a PDF file and converting it into PDF/A for archiving.

LiveCycle Content Services ES offers access controls at the user, group, and role level, and it supports single sign-on through NTLM or LDAP. For advanced security, deploy Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES software in concert with LiveCycle Content Services ES. This lets administrators leverage the same access control permissions assigned to content stored within the repository and have them transparently applied to documents as they are taken out of the repository and saved to a hard disk, sent via e-mail to someone external to the organization, or placed on USB devices. Applying rights management to documents lets users dynamically change policies for access control, revocation, revision control, and audit trails even after copies of documents have been extracted from the repository.

LiveCycle Content Services ES allows your team to categorize all content with custom hierarchical classifications. You can then perform powerful parameterized searches using a combination of custom classifications, word-based matching, and additional content metadata, such as content type, author, date, and location, to rapidly find critical business information.

When used with LiveCycle Process Management ES, LiveCycle Content Services ES allows you to perform searches based on the processes and content used throughout execution. For example, a court clerk can search for all outstanding processes related to a case filing. When used with Adobe LiveCycle Forms ES software, all forms and associated data are stored and indexed in the repository, enabling sophisticated searching. For example, a loan officer can easily search for all car and home loan forms submitted by a customer in a specific timeframe.

LiveCycle Content Services ES provides team collaboration capabilities, including forums and discussions, which can be included in engagement applications and processes. Forums contain topics that include posts from different users. For instance, a hiring process can have a step that creates a forum for each new candidate, and it enables the hiring manager to invite others to provide their feedback as part of the review process.

In addition to offering users a web interface to access and manage content, LiveCycle Content Services ES provides Microsoft Office plug-ins that enable business users to interact with the process engine and content repository using Microsoft Word and Excel. Based on their security profile, team members are able to check in, check out, and add new documents directly from Microsoft Office products. Network folders are also provided as another interface to content spaces in the content repository, giving users the option to manage their content transparently through simple drag and drop.
