How do I flow chart the network data files for a large corporatio.

[sandra]

I am new to Visio and I am trying to flow chart the network data files for a
large corporation? They have duplicate files and folders in multiple
locations.

Hi Sandra,

what do you mean? how duplicate files related to flow chart?
if you want to uncover duplicate files, you can use NoClone -

They have documentation which has been written by multiple people over the
years which has not been culled. So documentation on a specific software
module could be in 2-4 different places. I have been asked to review the
directory stucture and create a logical schemea for these documents. First I
have to chart what is currently there, determine duplicate information.

does this explain this?

Hi Sandra,

By using NoClone enterprise, you can scan all duplicae documents
scattered over network. Duplicate files are reported after running
network scan. You can export the result to CSV to help you to
understand duplicate information and organize your documents neat.

Evidently, I am not explaining this correctly. There are over 500 folders
and over 2000 files and subfolders. The files are not exact duplicates.
File name may be the same for similare i.e. Accouts Receivable Step Guide,
Account Receivable Directions, etc. And there are old files written 5-6
years ago and rewritten 2 years ago. then you have files written for
Training (AR training files). I don't know? they have not had any policies.
My manager had some files she used but always spent 10-15 minutes trying to
locate them so she made a new folder and copied the files, so she could find
them. Am I making my self clear... maybe as mud.
