SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR COUPLING STRUCTURED CONTENT WITH UNSTRUCTURED CONTENT
First Claim
1. A method of coupling structured content with unstructured content, the method comprising:
- receiving mapping information relating at least one type of structured content with indexing data for at least one type of unstructured content, wherein the indexing data is configured to facilitate access to the at least one type of unstructured content in a data storage system;
receiving unstructured content and indexing data associated with the unstructured content;
identifying structured content associated with the unstructured content based on the indexing data and the mapping information;
storing the unstructured content in the data storage system; and
linking the identified structured content with the unstructured content stored in the data storage system via the indexing data to allow access to the unstructured content stored in the data storage system via the identified structured content.

Abstract
A method of coupling structured content, such as that found in an enterprise resource planning system, with unstructured content, such as that stored via an electronic content management system, is presented. In the method, mapping information relating at least one type of structured content with indexing data of at least one type of unstructured content is received. The indexing data is configured to facilitate access to the at least one type of unstructured content in a data storage system. The unstructured content is then received, as well as indexing data associated with the unstructured content. Structured content associated with the unstructured content is identified based on the indexing data. The unstructured content is stored in the data storage system. The identified structured content is then linked with the unstructured content stored in the data storage system via the indexing data to allow access to the unstructured content in the data storage system via the identified structured content.

18. A computer-readable storage medium having encoded thereon instructions to be executed by one or more processors for employing a method of coupling an enterprise resource planning system with an enterprise content management system, the method comprising:
-
receiving mapping information relating at least one type of structured content with indexing data for at least one type of unstructured content, wherein the indexing data is configured to facilitate access to the at least one type of unstructured content when stored in the enterprise content management system; receiving unstructured content and indexing data associated with the unstructured content; using the indexing data and the mapping information to identify a structured content record in the enterprise resource planning system that is associated with the unstructured content; storing the unstructured content in the enterprise content management system as an unstructured content record; and linking the identified structured content record to the unstructured content record via the indexing data to allow access to the unstructured content record via the identified structured content record. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A computer system comprising one or more processors configured to execute instructions for employing a method of integrating an enterprise resource planning system with an enterprise content management system, the method comprising:
-
receiving mapping information relating at least one type of structured content with indexing data for at least one type of unstructured content, wherein the indexing data is configured to facilitate access to the at least one type of unstructured content in the enterprise content management system; receiving unstructured content and metadata associated with the unstructured content; using the metadata and the mapping information to identify a structured content record in the enterprise resource planning system that is associated with the unstructured content; storing the unstructured content in the enterprise content management system as an unstructured content record; and linking the identified structured content record to the unstructured content record via the metadata to facilitate user access to the unstructured content record via the identified structured content record. - View Dependent Claims (26)
