The main objective of this paper is to study the complementarity nature of enterprise modeling and knowledge management within the framework of enterprises. To do so, we evaluate some important methodologies in each domain and then several modeling points of view are explained. By reviewing CommonKADS, MASK, CIMOSA, and GIM methodologies and their modeling views we propose a generic framework to model knowledge in all its aspects. This framework has four modeling views namely, intent modeling, context modeling, content modeling and evolution modeling. These views are classified into several sub-elements brought together by developing meta-model in UML class diagrams. KBEE may possibly be useful both for the practitioners and scientific to deal with knowledge and its modeling in enterprises.
