Document collaboration and document management (Translation)

Document collaboration and document management

 

Document collaboration differ from document management in that it allows individuals to asynchronously develop a single document from a single location into a finished product without much concern about what happens to that document within a defined document Life Cycle. document management, on the other hand, is concerned about applying governance rules to documents, differentiating between unofficial and official communication, and how a document will be expired. it is concerned with tracking the "who did what" to the document during certain stages of that document's life cycle. and it is concerned about ensuring that there is only one version of the truth for that document's contents at any given time.

 

The difference between document collaboration and document management is that it allows independent personnel to asynchronously develop a single document to finished product from a separate place, instead of paying more attention to what happened in the defined document lifecycle. Document management: in another aspect, focus on the management rules from applications to documents, the differences between informal and formal communications, and document expiration. It focuses on and tracks the "who has done what" of a document at the final stage of the document lifecycle, and ensures that there is only one correct document version at any given time.
