The world of dqMan

Hello readers,

Most people I talk to about Documentum are using Samson, DQLTester, Delilah, or RepoInt. Over the last year I'm using dqMan to query on the Documentum repositories. It supports a rich set of features that will speed up your development times.

Aside from the querying part it can also do API scripts and even generate them by using API templates. You can have a DQL result list and generate another DQL batch for each row or create an API script. Very useful fixing stuff or when you want to kill a lot of workflows.

My personal favorite is the "favorites" library. I can store all my common used queries and I can exchange them with me colleges. It also let you open multiple tabs for different repositories (or the same by using a copy button) and dumped objects. You can easily switch between tabs to compare and do complex stuff.

Another cool feature is that you can build "input templates". These are placeholders within a query for object_ids, object_names or whatever you like and let a prompt window choose a value for it by another DQL, a fixed list or just a simple textfield, you name it.


But most of all it's free as the air around you.
Download dqMan it's worth a try!


Kind regards, Marcus
