If you want also to access the operation / maintenance documents via
Documentation Structure you can place the corresponding objects from Functional
Structure, Control Structure or Location Structure additionally in the
Documentation Structure, e.g. by configuring and using a corresponding Bulk Data
Management worksheet.
For more details on Document Management refer to System 800xA Engineering,
Engineering Studio (3BDS011223*).
Information Access Aspects
You can use the five Information Access aspects to integrate information handled by
standard PC applications without any programming.
• The File Viewer aspect.
See How to use the File Viewer on page 368.
• The Bookmark aspect.
See How to use the Bookmark Aspect on page 380,
• The Web Page aspect.
See How to use the Web Page Aspect on page 384.
• The ActiveX Wrapper aspect.
See How to use the ActiveX Wrapper Aspect on page 385.
• The Windows Application aspect.
See How to use the Windows Application Aspect on page 389
The concepts of Information Access Aspects are described in System 800xA, System
Planning (3BSE041389*).
How to use the File Viewer
The File Viewer also has the ability to create and use templates. This makes it
possible to standardize the look on new documents attached to File Viewer aspects.
All documents are fully associated with the aspect. This means that a copy and paste
operation creates a new set of documents. It also means that when performing an
Export or a Backup the documents will be contained inside the export files.
This is not the case when using for example the Bookmark aspect, the Help aspect
and the Web Page aspect.
