Records Creation
Records creation is a preventive
maintenance program that seeks (1)
to Determine who creates records
and why and (2) to ensure that only
supervisors can authorize the
creation of records in their
department and approve revising old
forms or designing new ones.
Records Storage
The procedures and equipment used
to house physical and electronic
documents are known as records
storage.
Physical storage
Encompasses the various types of
cabinets and shelves designed to
store paper documents, as well as
those cabinets designed to house
microfiche film and other nonelectronic media.
Electronic storage
Involves the special environment
that contains computer disks and
tapes.
This environment must meet a
double set of standards criteria.
Records Retrieval
The process of locating stored
information, is a critically important
phase of records management.
An effective records administrator
must design the records system to
align with the various retrieval
speeds necessary to support the
decision-making needs of the
organization.
Records Maintenance
Records Maintenance refers to the set
of service activities needed to operate
the storage and retrieval systems.
These activities classifying records;
developing efficient procedures for
operating the records system; updating,
purging, and retaining records; and
preserving or protecting the records.
Records Retention
Deciding how long each record
should be kept in the files is a
decision based upon a survey of all
existing records.
From such a survey of the records
needs and uses of all department, a
records retention schedule is
prepared.
Records Disposition
The last phase in the records life
cycle.
Records disposition or disposal,
involves two types of records:
inactive records that are transferred
to less accessible, lower-cost storage
and inactive records that must be
destroyed.

Periodic Method
Requires filled materials to be
examined at fixed intervals, often
every six months or one year.
Physical materials considered
inactive are place in inexpensive
record boxes and sent to storage.
Continuous Method
Continuous or perpetual method,
records are transferred to inactive
files as they reach a certain age or
when it seems likely they will no
longer be used.
Flat Forms
A single sheet of paper often used as
a single-copy recordis the most
common type of record in manual
systems. Examples are sales ticket
and billing form.
Specialty Forms
A much broader category of forms in
manual systems is the specialty
form, called because special
equipment is required for its
manufacture or use.
1. Unit-set formsmultiple-sheet
forms that are preassembled with
either carbon or carbonless paper.
Carbonless paper, sometimes called
NCR (no carbon required)
transfers an image from one sheet
to another by using a special
coating on the back.
Machine-Readable Records
Forms
With the steady progress made by
computer technology, many
automated systems use machinereadable printing on specialty forms.
PRINCIPLE OF USE
Forms should be approved and
made available only when their use
is justified.
This principle is basic. A form should
be created for use only when these
conditions are met:
PRINCIPLE OF
STANDARDIZATION
Size of Forms
The number of approved form sizes
should be kept to a minimum.
Forms are printed on standard-size
sheets of paper stock, such as 17 x
22.
Colors
Used on office forms should be
standardized
The use of carefully selected colors
expedites the routing, sorting and
filing of forms.
Printing Styles
Should be standardized since a
uniform typography improves the
appearance and readability of forms,
thus reducing the possibility of error.
PRINCIPLE OF EFFECTIVE
FORMS DESIGN
PRINCIPLE OF CENTRALIZED
CONTROL
1. Alphabetic systems
a) Correspondence filing (by name)
b) Geographic filing
c) Subject filing
2. Numeric systems
a) Numeric filing
b) Chronologic filing
Vertical Files
One two six drawers is the most
common filing cabinet. In it, we store
cards as well as larger documents,
such as letters and reports, on their
edge for easy accessibility.
