Sharing Content on the Content Server

When content is 'promoted' from the SharePoint server to the Content Server, it is checked out from the SharePoint server. The item remains in SharePoint, but it cannot be edited on the SharePoint system until it is returned.

Important: Pages are promoted from the SharePoint server, not from the Web Parts product page.

To promote an item to the Content Server, follow these steps:

1. Select the Document Library where the page is stored from the list on the SharePoint Site Content Screen.

   The Library Listing Screen is displayed.

2. Rest your cursor on the content item to be promoted.

   The Web Part Pulldown is displayed.

3. Select Promote to Oracle UCM from the Promote to Oracle UCM Menu.

   The Content Check In Screen is displayed.

4. Fill in the appropriate information. Click OK when done.

When an item has been promoted to the Content Server, it can no longer be edited in the SharePoint system. The item is viewable, but cannot be changed until it is brought back for editing.

To return an item to SharePoint, follow these steps:

1. Select the Document Library where the page is stored from the list on the SharePoint Site Content Screen.

   The Library Listing Screen is displayed.

2. Rest your cursor on the content item to be returned.

   The Web Part Pulldown is displayed.

3. Select Return to SharePoint from the Promote to Oracle UCM Menu. This option appears for those items which have been promoted and are now available for return.
