Documentation recommendations

Where should various documentation be placed? This article contains recommendations (the simplest and, in our experience, the most practical) and alternatives that we also see among our customers. We use these abbreviations: PM=Process map, PD=Process descriptions, AC=Activities, DAO=Document workspace, OD=Other documents, CL=Contract library, AL=Additional library
