The navigation at left hand side is an stack panel. Each stack contains a tree ( folder and records hierarchy ) structure from root that enables easily access documents and mails.

The navigation panel is divided on several stacks:

Taxonomy.
Categories.
Metadata.
Thesaurus.
Templates.
My documents.
E-mail.
Trash.

Each stack contains a tree ( folder and records hierarchy ) to help on organizing the nodes into the repository and help the user to locate fast and efficiently the data.

The taxonomy stack is the space for collaborative work, that means is the space where several users modify and share the company data.

The categories stack is a virtual taxonomy space that helps on navigation of taxonomy nodes across other concepts.

Categories is a hierarchical tree structure of category and subcategory folders. The idea is these folders and sub folders represents conceptual terms in a tree structure.

The metadata stack is a virtual taxonomy space that helps on the navigation of taxonomy nodes across the metadata field values.

Metadata view is a hierarchical tree structure of metadata groups. Each possible metadata value is represented as a tree node structure.

Only fields of type Select, SuggestBox and Checkbox are displayed ( free text fields like Inputs or Text area are not shown ).

You can create your own Stack Metadata Adapter visualization, more information at: Creating your own Stack Metadata Adapter.

The thesaurus stack is a virtual taxonomy space that helps on the navigation of taxonomy nodes across SKOS concepts.

A thesaurus is a book that lists words grouped together according to a similarity of meaning (containing synonyms and sometimes antonyms), in contrast to a dictionary, which contains definitions and pronunciations.

SKOS concepts are linked to many, but are represented as a tree structure.

The templates stack is the space to set templates for all the company. That means is the space where company templates are set to be used by several users for creating new company documents.

The My documents stack is a private space for each user, that means that only a user is able to get access in this section and is the default where personal data is stored.

The E-mail stack is a private space for each user, that means only a user is able to access their data in this section and is the default place where are stored the mails of the user.

The Trash stack is a private space for each user, that means that only a user is able to get access in this section. When a user deletes a node it goes automatically to its own trash. When a user empty its own trash the document is definitively removed from the application.

Administrators have no restriction for accessing all repository areas, including private user sections like "My Document", "E-mail" or "Trash".

The selected node from navigator panel determines the content shown at browser panel. All the nodes shown at the browser panel have the same parent ( selected node on tree ).

In case of virtual stacks ( categories, metadata and thesaurus ) the nodes shown at browser panel do not have the same parent ( selected node on tree ), really they are shown there because they have a relation ( category, metadata or thesaurus value ) with the selected node on tree.

When you do a right click with the mouse button on a node at the tree is shown a contextual menu. The available menu options in contextual menu depending on selected stack.

A complete description of all menu options are available at: Working in menu bar.

You are subscribed to a folder with subfolders into.
You are subscribed to a read only folder without subfolders into.
You are subscribed to a read only folder with subfolders into.

Browser

The browser panel at the top center shows a table of nodes ( documents, folders, mails and records ) that are in the selected node of the navigation panel.

At the top of the browser panel there's a path that indicates the actual location in the navigation panel ( for example "/okm:root/"). Below, there is a list of the nodes related with the selected node in the navigator panel.

Usually are listed the nodes that have the selected node as parent, except on Categories, Metadata and Thesaurus view where the nodes listed are related with the selected node and have not the same parent.

By default the browser table shows the columns:

Status ( icons display node status, for example if the node is locked is shown the Lock icon ).
Checkbox ( to apply actions on several nodes at same time ).
Icon ( indicate node type ).
Name ( name of the node ).
Title.
Language ( only for documents ).
Size.
Update date.
Author.
Version ( only for documents ).

Also in browser table can be shown extra columns based on metadata field values. For more information about how enable it take a look at: Administration > Profiles.

When you do a right click on the mouse button at some node it is shown a contextual menu. You will have distinct menu options depending on the selected node type and the visible stack panel combination.

A complete description of all menu options is available at: Working in menu bar.

On making a subscription to node an icon will appear at the side of node indicating that you are subscribed. Keep on mind that in order to receive these mail notifications you have to configure which events you want to be notified in the user profile. See Profile Notification tab for more info.

When there is no checkbox selected the action will be applied to the selected node ( blue row mark the selected node in browser view ).

The Massive icon displays a contextual menu for doing quick actions:
