Creating a Documentum Folder and Schema
You need to create a Folder in Content Manager called From Documentum where you want available assets from Documentum to be displayed. You then need to link it to a Multimedia Schema called Documentum asset. The Schema defines the content type of items in Content Manager that point to objects in Documentum and contains fields mapped to Documentum attributes.
About this task
After you run the installer, the following icons are applied to Content Manager items:
| Icon | Description |
|---|---|
| An overlay icon is applied to the From Documentum Folder for easy identification and to denote connection to Documentum status. | |
| An overlay icon is also applied to Multimedia Component based on the Documentum asset Multimedia Schema for easy identification. |
