Question about Share features

[nyorai]

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I am evaluating Share as a collaboration tool where I work and one of the things we need is to have a policy system which will 1) flag up policies that are due for review, and 2) collect digital feedback on who has read the relevant policy.

Can something like this be done with Alfresco Share out-of-the-box or with minimal coding?

Hello,

this is something that can be done with Alfresco Share albeit with a little coding and not out-of-the-box. You can assign metadata to a document (your policy) about the next review date and have a dashlet on a dashboard (user or site) display all policy documents where that date is close by or has passed based on a simple search query. The digital feedback can be collected by providing a simple, one-click action on the details page of a document where users can check that they've read the document. The list of users that have checked this can be tracked via another metadata property (and could be reset if a document is changed and needs to be read again).

Hi, thanks for the reply. That looks quite straight-forward. I'll have a look into it.
