* Document Status
* Department
* Author

Values for the Document Status property must be displayed in English, Spanish, or French. The display language must be based on a user's language preferences.

Human resources
The human resources (HR) department is responsible for sharing information with all employees related to four themes: my work, my benefits, and my career.
The naming of these themes may change overtime, and additional themes maybe added. It must be possible for someone from the HR team to edit the themes.
The HR site on the intranet is divided into a top level site with three subsites. Each subsite represents a unique team.

Team site URL
The HR site must use the URL http://hrblueonder.com
Marketing
The marketing department will use SharePointto publish brochures, marketing materials, and announcements.
Only final versions of these documents maybe added to the marketing team site for sharing with other Blue Yonder employees. Once a file is published, employees must be able to access the file by using a consistent link even if the file is renamed or moved within the site.
User file storage
Files that are in draft mode must not be accessible to any user except the author until the file is ready for review. Each marketing employee must have a single location for storing draft work, work in progress materials, and other personal files. Files stored in this location must only be accessible to the employee that owns the area unless the employee chooses to share a file with other users.

Information stored in the Downloads section of the website must not be crawled due to the large size and the number of files.
