23. Content Types Benefits –Centralized Management –Organization of Metadata and Behavior –Control and Governance –Reuse –Inheritance Defines –Metadata / Document Information Panel –Document Template –Workflow –Policy

24. Content Types: Management Top-level site “gallery” Child sites inherit

25. Content Types: Management Name / Description Parent Content Type Group

26. Content Types: Metadata Existing “Site Columns” New “Site Column”

31. Document Center Site Template Site template dedicated to document management Content Types enabled Versioning Settings enabled Tree View enabled Relevant Documents Web Part

32. Constraints and Suggested Practices ConstraintSuggested Practice Site Collection Limitations Content Types Site Columns Leverage SharePoint “Features” to “staple” company content types and site columns to site collections. Versioning on Document LibrariesPlan out content types and corresponding document libraries to ensure versioning is applied appropriately. # of Documents per “Level” (2,000 Documents) Plan document balancing techniques by using folders or “automated” balancing techniques using Event Handlers. CapacityPlan out Document Centers to align to content databases. SharePoint Groups and IndexingLeverage AD Groups instead of SharePoint Groups to avoid full crawls of large repositories.
