Kofax Front-Office Server Configuration Guide for IBM Content Manager 8.2 and 8.3
Kofax, Inc. 5
Introduction
This guide shows how to configure IBM DB2 Content Manager 8.2 and 8.3 and Kofax Front-Office
Server. Item types in IBM Content Manager appear as destinations in Kofax Front-Office Server,
and you can select attributes that appear as index fields. In IBM Content Manager System
Administration Client, you create item types and attributes and then grant permissions to the
necessary users by creating user groups and access control lists. You can add Kofax Front-Office
Server users to IBM Content Manager or use Kofax Front-Office Server Web Client to associate
Kofax Front-Office Server users with IBM Content Manager users. In the IBM Content Manager
client, you create folders that match the item types.
