Records management system
United States Patent Application 20130304735
Publication Date: 11/14/2013
Filing Date: 03/03/2011
Abstract: A records management system may include a policy management module
receiving a policy related to retention, disposition or hold of information
storable on an external storage system. A computerized management module may
associate a unique record identifier with a collection record including
metadata for the information. The unique record identifier may enable
management of the information by the computerized management module when the
unique record identifier and the information are stored on the external
storage system.
[10015] According to an embodiment, a central records management system
(RMS) may implement retention management over a broad range of content
repositories.
The retention management may include retention, disposition and hold of
information stored in the content repositories. Disposition of information
may include destruction of information, or otherwise relocation of
information.
The term information may be broadly used interchangeably with the terms data
or items. Examples of data or items may include contracts, invoices,
customer correspondence, or business documents.
The content repositories may be external to the central RMS. Examples of
repositories may include archive systems, file servers, or other content
management systems.
The central RMS may be the records authority where retention policies are
defined and managed for such repositories. The central RMS may provide a
mechanism for archival systems to delegate the management of collections of
stored information to the central RMS. In an example, the archival systems
may be federated archival systems. In an example, the stored information may
be compliance information.
The central RMS may thus provide a central point of policy management and
application. In an example, the central RMS also allows organizations to
include compliance-type information in records relationships. This provides
additional business context, for example, in audit and e-discovery
situations.
