EnterWorks - ETT 120 - How use different delimiters in Taxonomy and Hierarchy Nodes

EnterWorks Hierarchies and Taxonomies are used to organize and classify records within a repository.  Both are typically defined as multi-level structures.  The hierarchy or taxonomy structure is similar to how a set of nested file folders may be defined with a hierarchy or taxonomy node being synonymous with a specific file folder.  Just as a file can be placed in a file folder, a record can be assigned to a specific hierarchy or taxonomy node. Unlike a file location, which would always be represented by a directory path, such as D:\MyFiles\Products\TechnicalSpecs\ containing the file ProductASpec.xlsx,  The assignment of a record to a hierarchy or taxonomy node can be expressed in several different ways, with the most common being a relative path, which uses periods to separate the different levels, such as Tools.Power Tools.Drills.Cordless Drills to organize or identify battery-powered drills. Because periods are used to separate the levels, they cannot be used within the node names.  Also, other characters cannot be used to separate the levels for a relative path hierarchy or taxonomy. Using another type of hierarchy or taxonomy definition, there is a way to use other characters to separate the levels as well as use periods within node names while using the period to separate the levels.  This session provides an overview of the different types of hierarchies and taxonomies that can be defined as well as how to define a relative path using characters other than the period or to allow periods to be used for both the separator as well as within node values.
