Streamline Project Management with SharePoint 2010
Management of any project requires a few basic fundamentals, such as organization, proper timelines, and accurate documentation. Document Sets within SharePoint 2010 help ensure organized document management, reducing the chance of error and ultimately streamlining every step of your project.
Document Sets are like folders that enable collaboration on related documents without having to create a new document library or site. Let’s take a look at two features of Document Sets that make document management quick and easy:
1. Content Types: You can specify exactly what kind of content can be included in the Document Set. It also allows you to specify documents that will be automatically created at the same time a Document Set is created.
2. Seamless Updates: Because columns can be shared, metadata only has to be updated in one place for it to be applied to all the documents contained within the Document Set. This ensures metadata consistency and that you’re your documents have required metadata.
In an analysis of some of the principal differences between SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010, one of the promises was that SharePoint 2010 would be less about technology capabilities and more about how these technologies support business and business collaboration. Document Sets demonstrate just how SharePoint 2010 does that.
