Has anyone taking a step back and determined what their requirements are
for application/system documentation?

We tried the 'one size fits all' at my last place and it was not good. We ended up with a very large document that was very difficult to navigate and understand. Web applications had empty 'Report headings' sections, and reports had empty 'URL' and 'Menu path' sections, etc.

I lobbied to try an expert system (flowchart/guided checklist) but left before any movement was made in that direction. The help desk at my current place is like yours. Informal notes, OJT and osmosis.
