Hi Jeevan,

Have you visited the www.help.sap.com. There you will find the basics of KM in Information Integration. Actually there are 3 things in Information Integration

-> Business Intelligence (BI).

-> <u><b>Knowledge Management (KM).</b></u>

-> Master Data Management (MDM).

For learning about the basics of KM I think you must first visit this site. Once you get to know about the basics and what exactly KM is all about, then it will be more advantageous going fore technical issues which are genrally discussed in SDN forums and in Web Logs.

Please have a look to this link:

<b>http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/4c/9d953fc405330ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm</b>

This link starts from the basics of KM to the technical side of KM. This is best at this point of time.

I hope this solves your problem.

Regards

Pravesh

Hi Jeeven

KM is mainly used for storing the documents in the repositories and doing a well organized search and retrival of documents using the powerful TREX search. Also KM has so many features associated with it like versioning, approval, notifications on actrions link uploading the documents etc. You can also provide the access to the documents based on the permissions given to the user. These documents can be presented in the required way by using the flexible UI interfaces.

The collaboration feature helps in creating the collaboration rooms with both syncronous and asyncronous communications. Features like webex meetings,integration with different mail systems is also possible.

You can go through the documents in the elearning sections in sdn. Also you can go for help.sap.com to find any information you needed.
