ERM for SAP

Open Text has introduced a new component to its LiveLink suite of solutions, Records Management for use with SAP, which will be marketed and supported by SAP and Open Text. The offering allows customers to define and deploy records management in a central repository, while supporting multiple departments and SAP applications.

The solution for use with SAP applications offers a complete set of capabilities to support records management requirements as specified by DoD 5015.2, as well as the United States’ Federal Enterprise Architecture Records Management profile (FEARM).

Capabilities include:

• retention schedules (record series identifiers)--a system for keeping records as long as required, or determined by the organization;
• file plans and classification (automatic and interactive)--a system for ensuring records are identified, whether e-mail or written correspondence, ERP content or formal contracts;
• dispositions--ensures records are destroyed in a timely and cost-effective manner;
• hold management--safeguards records from deletion;
• records--validates that critical records are managed and stored appropriately; and
• physical records management--facilities for circulation management, barcode creation/printing and location tracking.
