- EDRMS stands for Electronic Document and Records Management System.
- It describes the combined technologies of an Electronic document management system and an Electronic Records Management System as a complete integrated system.
- An EDRMS aims to enable businesses to manage documents throughout the life cycle of those documents, from creation to destruction.
- Typically, systems consider a document a work-in-progress until it has undergone review, approval, lock-down and (potentially) publication, at which point it becomes a formal record within the organization.
- Once a document achieves the status of a record, the organization may apply best-practice or legally enforced retention policies which state how the second half of the life cycle will progress.
- This typically involves retention (and protection from change), until some events occur which relate to the record and which trigger the final disposition schedule to apply to the record.
- Eventually, typically a set time after these events, the record undergoes destruction.
