Content modeling is the process by which you structure, manage, and preserve content in Perceptive Content to best fit your business needs. A content model includes secure methods for capturing, processing, and searching for content.
Because different business processes use different content, each content model structures, manages, and preserves the content according to each business process.
Modeling your content in Perceptive Content involves creating drawers, items, and container types; building a container type hierarchy within drawers; using the defined container and item types; and assigning uniquely identifiable properties to content, including custom properties.
Perceptive Content enables you to define specific item types as required for a container. When you define required item types for a container, your users can view a list of the required item types in a container viewer. You can also configure your Perceptive Content workflow process to identify when a container contains all of the required item types.
Perceptive Content enables you to create a container type hierarchy to restrict the types of containers allowed in a drawer. You can also restrict drawers and container types to allow only specified item types.
