Electronic Document and Records Management classification of content

360 Protective Marking can be configured to apply EDRM classifications to the metadata of content when it is created and edited. The information applied is often due to legal obligations or business need and defines:

• How active documents are used
• Which library do documents go to
• What kinds of documents should become records
• Categorise records which require similar treatment
• Who is the primary record owner
• How long they must be kept for
• What happens to them after retention period is up
