Collections organize related information in
E-Notebook, and each collection appears as an
item in the Collection Tree. When you create a new
collection type, you create a new means of
organizing information in E-Notebook. For
example, you could create a collection type of
Project or Experiment. E-Notebook Users would
then be able to use these Projects or Experiments
to organize their information in E-Notebook.
When you create a new collection type, you define
the rules that determine which sections users can
add to collections of this type. Also, you set up the
rules that govern how the collection type is related
to other collection types in the Collection Tree:
where can a new collection of this type be created,
and what types of collections can be created within
it? You can set up the rules that are modeled after
your workflow.
