[stylist] Business Documents and The Sections They Contain

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

I'm not sure if any established guidelines exist for this. If I
understand the question, you're wondering how to create and organize
manuals and information a given business may use, correct?

I've worked with nonprofits to create handbooks and other informational
documents, and you draft them as you see fit. You collect all necessary
info, word it the best way possible for an individual entity then
organize it according to how a respective entity wants it.

There's not necessarily a right or wrong way to create these types of
documents. Like any written communication, you compile what is deemed
necessary and appropriate information. What that info entails and how
it's to be organized, both physically and with the text, will vary from
business to business.

Jim --- boy that would be interesting reading, an outline of that type
of document. (Can you get your hands on a few of those types of manuals
and take a look yourself? [bet there isn't a set of "written-down"
rules]). But hey, I really don't know, yet think that it could be a good
nitch for one of us to fill --- research, compile styles and put an
outline together that appears to be the most effective format for a tech
manual.

Hi,
Does anyone know of a resource that explains the various types of
business documents in terms of the sections they should contain? For
example, a software manual should contain these sections, or a white
paper should contain those sections, or a departmental procedural
document should contain these other sections.

hanks.
