Unified Taxonomy for Employee Center
Unified Taxonomy is a collection of hierarchical topics that brings together different content types, such as requests, articles, quick links, learning content, and employee communications.
In the Employee Center portal, you can use this capability to span across departments to provide a single employee-centric taxonomy. Unified Taxonomy sits at the core of the Curated Experiences. Set up the Unified Taxonomy to leverage the full potential of the Curated Experiences.
The Unified Taxonomy is built on these models.
- Content taxonomy (Data model): Provides the data model or the framework against which the content is mapped. This is the top-three levels of the topic. For example, .
- Content Authoring (Taxonomy management): Provides content managers and contributors the ability to tag content against the taxonomy and manage the taxonomy.
- Taxonomy for employee content: Is the actual content mapped to the taxonomy. This provides the mapping to the default content shipped by IT, HRSD, and Legal into the content taxonomy.
The Unified Taxonomy capability is delivered by Now Platform as two separate plugin and application.
- Content Taxonomy
- The application that provides the data model or the topic hierarchy and the taxonomy management (content authoring) capabilities for the Unified Taxonomy.
- Employee Experience Taxonomy
- The plugin that provides the mapping of all the default content for IT, HR, Workplace, Legal, and Procurement into the default content taxonomy. The content types mapped by default are requests, articles, quick links, learning content, and employee communications. Once the plugin is downloaded, this mapping will be visible as part of the content taxonomy app in the platform.
After you complete the installation, perform the following to achieve a Unified Taxonomy experience.
- Clone the employee content taxonomy and make appropriate additions or modifications to the provided topic structure. Taxonomy is updated to reflect the terminology and available services. For more information, see Clone taxonomy for employee content.
- Associate all the existing and new content to the cloned taxonomy topics.
- Update the search configurations to filter based on the content associated to the cloned taxonomy.
