Administration guide

OpenKM provides easy access to the application configuration by means of the "Administration Tab" located on 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 right top corner of the system toolbar.
