Hi from Aussie John

This is an address to the National Archives of Australia which explains  the functional classification process for us down here.  It is drawn from AS ISO 15489.

It should help.

Subject: [RM] function based classification


Does anyone have a good definition for a function based classification 
system?

Secondly, as we look at moving our subject based system to a functional 
system, the hierarchal approach will be function, sub-function and then 
activity.  Any thoughts on this?
