Application

An application is a Content Manager OnDemand object that describes the physical and logical characteristics of an input file, including the format of the data as it is stored in Content Manager OnDemand, how the data indexing and loading programs process and store the input data, and how Content Manager OnDemand client programs display pages of the input data. Someone in your organization typically defines an application for each different set of data that is to be loaded into Content Manager OnDemand.

When you define an application, you must provide a name for the application, assign the application to an application group, and specify the physical characteristics of the data. You can optionally define indexing parameters, create logical views, and provide print options for Content Manager OnDemand client and server programs when you add the application to Content Manager OnDemand.
