Management of Official Records in a Business SystemManagement of official records in electronic format is becoming increasingly complex and State Records actively promotes the adoption of EDRMS or similar technologies for managing electronic records. However, many agencies operate business systems that do not appropriately manage the official records they generate. To address this problem State Records has published the standards Management of Official Records in a Business System and the Functional Specification for Records in a Business System. Agency adoption of these Standards will reduce the likelihood of loss or inadvertent destruction of official records, and ensure their long-term preservation and access. Related Information:
