Content Library
The Content Library is a repository for storing files that you want to share. Valid file types include Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, HTML, text (such as an e-mail), web pages and images, but the list of file types can be customized by your system administrator.
Posting Documents
We can post documents that reside on a hard drive or network folder. Posted files display in a list and are filtered by a user's current view, a user's view rights to information, and any manual filters set.
When we post a document to the Content Library using the Content Library Options action pane, we can describe the document, set access to the document, and determine whether you want to send a notification e-mail about the posting.
We can assign a document type and subtype to aid sorting and filtering. System administrators define document types. Subtypes are defined by a user when the document is posted.
Documents that have application context are associated with a current view. For example, a Microsoft Word document might be associated with a particular report. If you want to view a report and anything that is associated with that report, you can view a particular current view. Relevant reports and documents are displayed.
Customizing the Display of the Content Library List
We can sort the list by clicking Sort this list from the Content Library Options action pane or by clicking a column heading.
You can categorize, sort, and filter documents in the Content Library list by:

• Access rights
• Date
