Introduction

The core concepts and principles of document formation, capture and management given in this document are a number of concepts and principles for document formation, capture and management:

A core standard in a series of standards and technical reports on technology and practice: The "document" 1) referred to in this document is equivalent to the authority in the Chinese context

Documents and archives of units or organizations:

1) According to the actual work of archives in China, "records" is translated into "documents", which are equivalent to the documents and archives of organs or organizations in the Chinese context (excluding

Archives Collection Archives), the title uses "documents (archives)", which is convenient for retrieval and maintenance of "records" in the series of international standards for document (archives) management:

The original intention is to maintain the consistency of the use of national standards that have been adopted and to promote wider application:

About files and file management

Documents are both evidence of business activities and information assets: Documents are distinguished from other information assets by their evidence in business transactions

Role and dependency on metadata: File metadata is used to describe and preserve contextual information and to provide appropriate rules for file management:

File management includes the following:

and availability:

The specific presentation form of the form is defined in Chapter 3:

More and more documents are produced and preserved in the digital environment, providing a series of opportunities for new use and reuse of documents: digital ring

The environment also allows for more flexible file control within and between systems that manage files:

Changes in business models have expanded document responsibilities beyond traditional organizational and jurisdictional boundaries: This requires documentation professionals

staff understand and meet the requirements of a variety of internal and external stakeholders, such as the public, consumers, service users, document subjects and other document formation, capture

access, manage the growing demands of stakeholders for transparency in corporate and government decision-making, etc:

Note 2: In this document, "formation, capture and management" is used to generally describe the overall work of document management, including the document receiving behavior and the description of this document:

file process:

a) the role of the document as a facilitator of business activities and information assets;

b) growing opportunities for document utilization and reuse in the digital environment;

c) Documentation, capture and management systems and rules need to extend beyond traditional organizational boundaries, such as collaborative and multi-jurisdictional work

environment;

d) file control independent of other components of the file system;

e) the importance of routine analysis of business activities and context to identify which documents should be formed, captured and how they should be retained over the long term;

f) Risk management in document management strategy design, and the importance of document management as a risk management strategy:

Because the concepts and principles of this document are applied in a variety of business and technical contexts, which may take different measures to implement document control,

processes and systems: This document does not provide detailed implementation recommendations for a specific environment for document formation, capture and management, but rather defines core concepts,

Develop high-level principles for developing document control rules, processes and systems in any environment: For files in different file management environments

Recommendations for the design and implementation of controls, processes and systems are set out in subsequent sections and in other International Standards and Technical Documents:

benefit
