1. A method for harvesting assets for packaged software application configuration, comprising:
- obtaining one or more documents defining deployment procedures associated with deploying a packaged software application;
extracting content and style from the one or more documents, the content including one or more segmented elements of the one or more documents, the one or more segmented elements of the one or more documents include section, subsection, list or table, or combinations thereof, the style including one or more formats of the elements, the formats of the elements include font, color, texture, indentation, page layout, page number, footnote, header, image size, or spacing or combinations thereof;
creating one or more document objects corresponding to respective one or more elements of the extracted content and style, and populating the one or more document objects with the respective one or more elements of the extracted content and the extracted style;
storing the one or more document objects as assets in an asset repository;
enhancing the content in the one or more documents; and
cleansing the content and style according to one or more rules,wherein the cleansing further includes merging duplicate content if a duplicate in the content is discover,wherein the enhancing the content in the one or more documents includes adding information associated with identification of a process or user performing the cleansing, date, name of the process or the user, or project information, or combinations thereof, associated with the cleansing, andwherein the storing the one or more document objects as assets in an asset repository further includes;
presenting to a user the one or more document objects with content, form, and metadata;
enabling the user to select an output type format;
generating the one or more document objects in the selected output type format; and
storing the generated one or more document objects in the selected output type format.
