I would say yes, if the document is used for a business purposes.  Some 
examples would be:

A document memorializing a conversation or facts and placed in a file 
"just in case" it is needed to respond to business, audit , or legal 
queries. 
An electronic report business transactions that is not referenced unless 
something goes wrong. 
Internal control documents documenting an activity (e.g., logs)

All of these are not viewed or transmitted unless needed.  And at least in 
my company, all have retention periods (so they are not kept in 
perpetuity).
