This section contains information about the interface used with the product.
The following screens are shown in this chapter:
Several buttons are common to many pages and are not discussed unless additional information is available:
Submit: submits the changes made to the page
Reset: clears any entries and resets the page to its default
Quick Help: displays the help entry for the screen
Delete: removes the item on the screen
Create: submits the information provided and creates the item
Info: displays the information page for the item
Thumbnail View: Displays the page in thumbnail view.
Headline View: Display the page in headline view.
Use this page to set most of the configuration options for the system. When initially opened, the options on this page are unexpanded. Click a link next to an option to expand it.
Permissions: The Admin.RecordManager right is required to use this page. This right is assigned by default to the Records Administrator role. |
To access this page, click Records then Configure then Settings from the Top menu.
Most configuration tasks are discussed in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Setup Guide for Universal Records Management.
Use this page to configure many aspects of PCM.
The Physical Item Information Page, also discussed in this section, contains information about individual physical items which are managed by PCM.
Permissions: The PCM.Admin.Manager right is required to access the Configure Physical Content Management page. By default, this right is assigned to the predefined PCM Administrator role. |
To access this page, click Physical then Configure then Settings from the Top menu.
The Batch Services option is only displayed if the corresponding option on the Configure Physical Content Management Page is enabled.
The menu items available to users depend on the rights they have been assigned. A content administrator with all access rights (typically assigned the predefined PCM Administrator role) will see all administrator menus. Other users (for example, those assigned the default 'pcmrequestor' role) may see a much smaller subset of the administrator menus, depending on their assigned rights.
Use this page to view information about an existing physical item.
Permissions: The PCM.Physical.View right is required to use this screen. This right is assigned by default to the PCM Requestor and PCM Administrator roles. |
To access this page, search for the item. On the search results page click Information then External Item Information in the item's Action menu.
This page shows the current properties of the physical item, including its basic metadata (name, title, filer, and security group), its freeze status, its object and media types, its storage location, and barcode label.
Note the following:
If the repository is set up to auto-generate content IDs (in the System Properties utility), the name of a physical item was generated automatically. It is typically a number, possibly preceded by a prefix (for example, ID_002319).
If the physical item was assigned a life cycle (retention schedule and disposition rules), the information page also includes a Retention Schedule Information section providing disposition processing and security information for the item.
If the physical item is currently checked out, its current location is set to the value of the deliver-to location as specified when the associated reservation request was created. If no location was provided, the current location is set to "OTHER." If a location comment was specified for the associated reservation request, the Current Location Comments field shows this comment. Otherwise it contains the login name of the user who created the reservation request.
If the physical item is contained within another physical item, the current location and/or permanent location field includes a Container Details link, which opens the information page of the parent physical item (the "container").
The following screens are accessed when using the update functionality:
