Content Lifecycle Management (CLM) Features

enChoice's Content Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution is a full-featured add-on to FileNet P8 versions 5.5 and later, that makes retention management intuitive and cost-effective.

Plugs Right Into Your Existing FileNet P8 System

enChoice’s Content Lifecycle solution complements FileNet P8 Content Platform Engine (CPE) and IBM Content Navigator (ICN).

  • A Content Navigator plug-in provides the front-end services, so its handling is very easy and intuitive.
  • From the Content Navigator UI reports, approvals, deletions, and holds are managed seamlessly.
  • The background processing in FileNet P8 is controlled and executed by the CLM Service Manager, which is part of the solution. No additional code or components required!

Event-based Retention for Documents and Folders

Retention period assignments can be based on events, which are definable by multiple criteria. If a specific event occurs for a document or a folder, CLM will automatically assign the retention period defined for this event, greatly reducing manual processes and, subsequently, diminishing opportunities for errors.

Documents are deleted in a controlled and secure manner, either manually or in automated batches. All deletions and modifications are logged for auditing purposes. Further, documents can only be deleted after receiving the appropriate approval. These approval processes can be multi-stage, with the ability to enable required review by two or more individuals. For efficiency, approvals can be handled in batches instead of on a document level.

Document protection from deletion can be easily invoked by manual or automatic holds.

Scheduled Reporting

With enChoice’s Content Lifecycle Management solution, reports can be configured based on your specific needs. For example, you can structure your reports by Object Class, properties, or storage area. These reports can be generated ad-hoc or automatically and be sent to the relevant knowledge workers based on predefined schedules.

Scheduled Reports

Supported standard reports:

  • Overview of all documents whose retention has expired and can be deleted
  • Summary of the retention settings

Reports customizable via configurable criteria to meet your needs:

  • By object class
  • By documents properties ( incoming date, last modified date, etc.)
  • By storage area

Scheduled reports for relevant users:

  • By object class
  • By documents properties ( incoming date, last modified date, etc.)
  • By storage area
