This is a question I need the answer to as well. Is there a software
package that allows you manage this?
Thanks!

Subject: Another DAM Question!
Hi,
I am looking for any advice from TMS institutions that use DAMS. We are
in the middle of an integration project, Extensis/TMS, and would like to
know how other places organize their image folders. Our initial thought
was to organize by object ID, each object having its' own folder, the
most recent recommendation is a directory structure that is
chronological - date of capture.
Many thanks,
Liana

Subject: Update on Portfolio progress
Image Resources have finally agreed to move ahead with using Object
Number as the master field between TMS and Portfolio, and to reorganize
the image catalogs from the CD/DVD based directory structure to a
chronological structure (i.e., Images\YYYY\YYYYMM).
I'm going to bring in an extra body to work on the file migrations, but
it's going to take a lot of searching (since the image files don't have
date information embedded in metadata, I expect the person will have to
cross reference TMS to decide where to move images). Do you know of
anyone who has the right combination of skills and would be interested
in a temporary position?
We can't implement the TMS scripting until the directories are
restructured, so I want to get this going quickly.
