Creating a Query-Based Taxonomy Using a Folder Hierarchy (SAP Library

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Creating a Query-Based Taxonomy Using a Folder Hierarchy

Purpose

You want to create a query-based taxonomy based on an existing folder hierarchy.

Process Flow

...

1. Create an index

You need to create an index before you can create a query-based taxonomy. You do this in the index administration iView in index administration (KM Admin ® Index Administration; see Creating an Index).

2. Assign data sources to the index

You now assign data sources to the newly created index in the same iView. You want to index these data sources and create a taxonomy for them (see Assigning Data Sources).

3. Copy an existing folder hierarchy

You want to base the taxonomy on an existing folder hierarchy. To do this, create a new taxonomy in the Index Administration iView (KM Admin ® Index-Administration), and copy the existing folder hierarchy into this taxonomy. You new taxonomy now has the same folder structure as the existing folder hierarchy (see Creating Taxonomies for an Index).

4. Define the categories of the taxonomy using search queries

For each folder in your folder hierarchy, you now define the categories of the query-based taxonomy using a search query. These queries define which documents are later classified into the categories. You define the queries in the Taxonomy Query Editor iView. (Content Manager ® Taxonomy Query Editor; see Defining Search Queries (Simple View)

Result

When you have created a query-based taxonomy, you can begin the query-based classification of documents (See Structure link Classifying Documents).
