Administration guide
OpenKM provides easy access to the application configuration using the "Administration Tab" located in the administration system area. Relevant and useful information can be accessed to assist the administrator in controlling and configuring the OpenKM repository.
Only users with ROLE_ADMIN can access the administration area. A new tab, Administration, will appear to these users at the top right corner of the system toolbar.
