Hello Everyone,
I have been playing around with using multiple document libraries (LIB) (e.g. one for each functional area) vs. ONE library and using content types to display/view the documents.
I still haven’t made up my mind which is the best way. What I don’t like about multiple LIB is I cannot query specific documents unique to a person (as an example) – I can only do this if I direct the query to a specific LIB.
Side Note: I am using the stand Content Query Web Part and a content type.
I manage P&P across different Divisions.
Any thoughts or experience that you might want to share.
Thanks
Andrew
Good question. Can you ask it as a separate discussion ?
Hi Mark,
Thanks. I remember you sent me this URL. Great resource.
My next question: are Content Types with 10 columns better or just create the columns and then use the ones you want in each library?
Still not sure about this one.
Thanks
Me
Hi Andrew
I put this list together a while back. It lists all the features that must be taken into a consideration when you choose to go for one library all two. It’s often a governance, management and flexibility decision.
