Whilst creating recent retention schedules, business colleagues have asked
if I could add some extra columns to generic schedules marked long term
storage format, location, master record responsibility/handling. Their
point was that this would help them use the schedule as a departmental
tool for identifying records handling arrangements.
Whilst I am very keen to encourage the business areas to use the schedules
ina practical way, I have reservations that this would present more risk
issues than value e.g. version control/audit issues.
Has anyone developed anything similar to the above suggestion or is it a
case of STAY AWAY from trying to do too much within one document.
I welcome any advice!
