K2 for SharePoint

K2 for SharePoint 2010

K2 provides several optional components that can be used with a SharePoint environment. Components are available for Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 (WSS), Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS), SharePoint 2010 Foundation and SharePoint Server 2010. The K2 for SharePoint 2010 components provide a Web-based designer that is hosted within the SharePoint environment and a K2 Worklist Web part. SharePoint wizards allow documents, lists, users and sites to be used or created based on a process. The K2 for SharePoint 2010 components also provide integration with MOSS-specific functionality, such as Records management, Publishing, Business Data Catalogue, Search and InfoPath Forms Services.

The SharePoint Components are split into two separate versions.

Only one of the following components can be installed per server. The Setup Manager will look at the dependencies and will display the correct component.

MOSS Components: Components enabling SharePoint integration with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (Enterprise or Standard Edition), Microsoft Office Forms Server 2007
