I'm starting to have nightmares about what we have in chat from the last couple of months! Much private chat (aka banter) should probably be deleted after a few days, but occasionally in the middle of it will be two or three posts which are reasonably important. Short of cut and paste (or screen shot) there doesn't appear to be any way of saving the important bits. Similarly, applying retention is very much all private chat or nothing... Donald From: The Information and Records Management Society mailing list <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Elizabeth Pacey Sent: 13 May 2020 10:49 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [External] creating an archive of yammer and MS Team chats Hi Neil "If someone stops to have a conversation with a colleague by the water cooler, there hasn't been any need or efforts made to record all those and archive them. Similarly when a business meeting is held you capture the key discussion and decisions in minutes or memos but you don't record every word that everybody said and archive those. So why do the rules have to be different when that chat is taking place in Teams, Skype or Yammer?" It's a good point but in Acas we just don't work that formally any more. Only the senior leadership meetings and big projects get minutes and they are largely a set of action points. It's completely changed since I started work. I last saw a memo around 15 years ago perhaps? The MS Teams work in particular is basically one long meeting not pinned down to one time or space that I think we might need to capture. The less formal stuff in Yammer I am more relaxed about. It may be just enough to show that we set up these yammer groups and what they covered. Thanks for replying, it's helping me have a think about what we need to preserve.
