WELCOME TO OUR FINAL PROJECT: EMAGAZINE RECORDS MANAGEMENT? SEASON 23/24 IMR 652 RECORDS MANAGEMENT “A project or academic task that must be accomplish individually or groups by every undergraduate student to obtain the attributions to graduate.” Records management involves the creation and capture of records at the point of origin. This includes ensuring that relevant and important information is properly documented and recorded. Moreover, it can be classified and categorized based on their content, purpose, and significance. This helps in organizing information for easy retrieval and ensures that records are managed appropriately throughout their life cycle. Effective records management involves establishing secure and accessible storage systems. It ensures that records can be retrieved efficiently when needed, facilitating decisionmaking, and supporting day-to-day operations. This magazine is created with the idea that have been generated from the brainstorming of three students. Six articles have been chosen and approved by the lecturer based on the syllabus or any topics related to records management. The content of six articles are consists based on the topics that have been learnt on subject “Management of Business Records. We hope that you are enjoying reading this as much as we enjoying creating t Records management is the systematic and efficient control of an organization's records throughout their life cycle, from creation or receipt to final disposition. The primary purpose of records management is to ensure that an organization's information is effectively managed, organized, and preserved in a way that supports its business processes, legal obligations, and accountability requirements.
RECORDS MANAGEMENT PRACTICE:THE ISSUESAND MODELS FOR CLASSIFICATION 1 www.businessez.com The Malaysian government, including other nations such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Korea, has implemented a transition from paperbased to electronic government to accomplish the objective of a paperless office and reap additional advantages. The working environments, especially in government agencies, have been impacted by this change. Although employees seem prepared to accept the switch from traditional to electronic systems (Mokhtar & Yusof, 2009), many have yet to see success, most notably with adopting the records management initiative (Yusof, 2009). Put simply, even though RM is crucial for the government at every stage of development, neither the automation of office tasks nor the execution of RM initiatives has yet received top priority. Records management (RM) is now considered an inevitable byproduct of good governance in Malaysia because of the introduction of the electronic government (e-government) initiative. E-government has the power to change the relationship between businesses, citizens, and the government and could achieve several different goals, such as better citizen empowerment, improved interactions, and more efficient government management with reduced corruption. It can also lead to increased transparency, which makes it easier to increase revenue and decrease costs (World Bank, 2005). E-government projects are now offering usercentric approaches on government websites and in systems, having previously provided infrastructure and human skills (Yusof & Bakhari, 2010). But the nation has not yet lived up to expectations. In 2009, the Public Complaints Bureau released statistics that included ten complaints about inadequate public service delivery. According to Bakhari (2010), 46.6% of comments mentioned "late/no action/feedback," which strongly suggests a lack of information or trouble locating documents when needed. Malaysia's standing as a leader in e-government fell to number 32 in 2010 and then to number 40 in 2012. (United Nations, 2012).
2 www.businessez.com According to Haslinda, Azizah, and Othman (2005), 53% of the projects failed to meet their budgets, completion dates, or functional requirements, which resulted in a drop in the nation's ranking. A total of 36% of the systems' operations fall short of expectations, meaning they are either not used as intended or are used as intended but fail to produce the desired outcomes. An additional 11% of the cause was user resistance to using the system as a result of inadequate training and skills, as well as the system's complexity. Numerous factors, such as project management, inept top management, technology, organisational complexity or size, and process, frequently contributed to these failures (Haslinda et al., 2005, Razlini, 2012). It is apparent that e-government initiative in Malaysia is lack of RM component. Such a component is central in the execution of a complete and successful e-government endeavor. RM is the foundational component that should not be abandoned to yield a successful e-government materialization since all actions and decision makings should be pivoted on RM (Yusof & Chell, 2005). The classification of records is closely connected to service delivery in particular. The Malaysian government affirmed in 2007 that prior to putting any RM systems into place, classification systems and retention schedules must be developed over the course of the following seven years (Service Circular, 2007, Chapter vi, vii and viii). Classification systems, however, should not be used since they are not prioritised (Eusof and Yusof, 2011). As a result, when designing an RM system, RM specialists are rarely consulted and record classification has rarely been taken into consideration (Milne, 2010). Compared to other processes like retention, disposal, and managing authentic records, less than 10% of e-government initiatives considered the need to capture RM requirements (Rusnah and Nurrusobah, 2010).
Models can exist in many forms, including scientific, mathematical and statistical, conceptual, functional, or as visualizations. They are typically represented in graphical or textual form, and often present a simplified version of a concept, phenomenon, relationship, structure, system or aspect of the real world (Carleton College, 2009, O’Neil and Schutt, 2013, Pearce-Moses, 2005). 3 www.businessez.com Classification is made up of several related principles in RM including access, retrieval, maintenance, retention and disposal. Classification systems allow records to be accessed easily, providing the ability to retrieve all records including annotations and attachments, in the context in which the records belong (Schellenberg, 1956, Wallace, 1987). Classification systems also allow records to be maintained in their business context throughout their life cycle, and then preserved or destroyed. RECORDS CLASSIFICATION REVIEW OF THE RECORDS MANAGEMENT MODELS METHOD This paper employs qualitative method that is suitable for surveys by using one case study (Gunnlaugsdottir, 2012): Open-ended interviews were conducted with the employees. Observations took place at the scene where it was studied on how employee use the system in their computer. Any available internal and external material were examined. A snapshot study was conducted to identify research problems in the case study.
www.businessez.com This paper discusses both aspects: the RM models that relate to classifying records, and the issues embrace in managing records in Malaysia. The models were reviewed to obtain information and identify gaps in records classification, while the issues were identified to learn the practiced carried out in targeted case study. 4 Observations at the SJM (in 2010, 2012 and 2013) revealed that the execution of records management initiative had not been based on an understanding of and compliance.

ALIGNMENTOFARCHIVESANDRECORDSMANAGEMENTTOTHEBUSINESS PROCESSES NOVEMBER5,2020 [BYNURANISHAYASMEEN] BUSINESS WWW.BUSINESSEZ.COM MANAGEMENT As government bodies, the University of Venda and the University of the Witwatersrand generate records cutting across business activities that need to be managed in terms of the National Archives and Records Service Act (No. 43 of 1996). Universities, as public organizations, must fulfill certain legal requirements and adhere to recordkeeping as stipulated by the South African statutory regulations. Thus, they need to be able to manage their achieves and records effectively in their business operations (Cheng 2018, 24). It is essential to manage records of business transaction to sustain an organization. It appears that records management is not recognized as an essential function at the South African universities. This low profile of records management functions results in a lack of integration of the archives and record management (ARM) programme into business processes. The study conducted by Van Wyk and Du Toit (2016. 109) indicated that it was necessary to assess the causes of a poor Archives and Records Management (ARM) programme at South African universities. The mostly affected universities were historically disadvantaged universities. 5
This paper sought to investigate the extent to which an ARM programme was aligned with business processes at both the University of Venda and the University of the Witwatersrand to propose an ARM framework in line with best practice standards at the university. The specific objectives of the study were to: Assess the level of ARM programme alignment to the university business processes . Propose an ARM framework for the university. BUSINESS NOVEMBER5,2020 WWW.BUSINESSEZ.COM MANAGEMENT PROBLEMSTATEMENT Records kept by universities continue to be essential to effective governance and accountability to all universities. Access to information, accountability, transparency, and good governance are all facilitated by effective records management (Garaba 2018). "Lack of proper ARM framework has been identified as a compliance risk to an efficient institution of higher learning in South Africa," as noted by Sulej (2009, 169). Universities must contend with a lack of integration between business processes and archives and records, which results in the loss of institutional memory. At the time, Chinyemba and Ngulube (2005) noted that although most university records managers understand the value of recording their institutions' business operations, they have not yet integrated records and achievements processes to integrated business processes. The success of an ARM programme depends on the existence of a strong ARM framework that will enable integration into business processes (Garaba 2018). Without effective records management, it is almost impossible to plan and administer any formal organization effectively (Cheng 2018, 205). It is this background that informed this study, hence, the research sought to analyze the integration of the ARM programme to business function. AIMOFTHESTUDY 6
BUSINESS NOVEMBER5,2020 WWW.BUSINESSEZ.COM MANAGEMENT The lifecycle theory is used as the theoretical framework in this study and it has its origin in biology and has spread to less organic sectors such as the managerial and records management fields (Ngulube 2011). In the records management context, the theory assesses the creation, distribution, use and disposal of records. Every stage of the lifecycle of records management requires appropriate strategies and formats of management. The records lifecycle provides a framework for understanding ARM responsibilities. This paper argues that while a model for managing electronic records, such as a records continuum, can be applied to university records, the traditional practices of managing records through the records lifecycle model are still applicable to university records management. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK RESEARCH METHODOLOGY This study adopted a comparative case study approach aimed at collecting data about ARM processes at the University of Venda and the University of the Witwatersrand, and their impact on business processes at the institutions. Qualitative and Quantitative techniques were employed to collect the data using interviews and documentary reviews. The participants were informed about the aim and objectives of the study and their decision to participate in the study was purely voluntarily. RECOMMENDATIONS The proposed framework for the management of universities in South Africa provides a structure that can be used to promote a collective approach to the management of university records as part of the enterprise business management processes. Governance and accountability are dependent on an effective ARM programmes. This means that decision-making is dependent on an effective records management programme. The proper management of records contributed to an effective disposal programme that includes an appraisal of records, disposal of records and preservation of archival materials. This means that there would effective process to transfer archival materials to the archives repository while records with short-term value are disposed of. The adoption of the archives Document Management and Records System (EDMRS) is recommended for an organization to implement a systematic disposal programme. 7

BUSINESSEZ.COM 10 BUSINESSEZ VOL. 01 Anis Farhanah Contributor BusinessEz Publication Date 20 January 2024 The Records Life Cycle LITERATURE REVIEW Records of archival value may eventually be sent to archives for research and posterity The process of capturing evidence of functionality and accountability traditionally begins with the creation or capture stage of records. Over time, records accumulate more additional information about the document, such as who has had access and its relationships to other documents, especially contextual metadata, as they pass through later stages of maintenance and disposition. Comprehensiveness and consistency in capturing such metadata information is essential to ensure the long term authenticity, integrity and reliability of records. Furthermore, records of archival value may eventually be sent to archives for research and posterity. In brief, there are three phases of the life cycle of records: current; semi-current; and non-current (IRMT, 1999). The first phase is also known as active records, which comprise records that are regularly used for the conduct of the current business of an organisation or individual. The creation of records is presumably for a legitimate reason and according to certain standards or protocols. These records will normally be maintained in or near their place of origin, or in a registry, or records office. Appraisal and disposal process, which take place during and at the end of the current phase, determine records of continuing value and records of no further value.
PhasesofRecords Records provide evidence of accountability and ensure the smooth operations of an organisation by providing efficient access to information that meets legal and regulatory requirements. Records must be complete, accurate and reliable over time to become evidence of organisational transactions. The traditional registry system has proved its significant contribution in ensuring the authenticity and integrity of records, whilst the electronic records management system is struggling to replicate or produce such a sound and stable system. Fisher states in the electronic environment, if the integrity of the filing cabinet can be demonstrated, then anything stored or recorded in the filing cabinet inherits the integrity of the filing cabinet. This, in turn, could be demonstrated by following a standard that identifies how electronic records are to be recorded or stored and the nature and purpose of the electronic records. The backbones of the registry system is a comprehensive file plan structure, which together with record keeping procedures enable the capture of adequate metadata, particularly contextual metadata that underpins the meaning of records.

WHATIS RISKMANAGEMENT? BUSINESS MAGAZINE WWW.BUSINESSEZ.COM 2024 Traditionally risk management is about controlling loss and the financial status of an organisation, and is implicitly linked to the insurance industry. During the 1960s, companies began to employ risk managers because of the increasing cost of insurance. However, at this stage one of the key barriers faced by organisations was the lack of risk management experience and such qualifications as there were tailored to insurance managers. The change in emphasis from insurance management to risk management was slow and poorly received by senior management, due to the continuing focus on insurance controls and lack of understanding. One of the key drivers for risk management is the necessity to comply with international legislation and expected standard of corporate governance that require organisations to demonstrate greater accountability and transparency in their dealings. However, it is dangerous to confine risk management with compliance, risk management is about clarity and the ability to not only identify the correct opportunities but also to maintain discipline in pursuing them. Hence, the biggest risk of all is to take no risk, and thereby fail to take opportunities. Organisations have recognised the need to respond to the effects of competition and economic change by reviewing their overall cost of business. 12

DO BUSINESS RECORDS MANAGEMENT AFFECT BUSINESS GROWTH? The primary importance of SMEs in the industrialization process and development of countries throughout the world, for sustaining growth and creating jobs in developing economies, cannot be overstated. The vast significance of SMEs has been recognized by most business researchers. Given the significant role, they play in the economic sectors and countries’ progress, they have been proclaimed as an engine of growth. SMEs, however, have different definitions in different countries. These are defined by the quantity of money invested, and the strength of the employee or team.

Document recognition, categorization, preservation, protection, extraction, monitoring, and disposal or permanent preservation are all part of this operation. Per the ISO 15489–1: 2001 benchmark, documents management is a field of management that is responsible for the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance, use, and disposition of records, as well as the processes for capturing and maintaining evidence of and information about business activities and transactions in the form of records. Data collected on a specific subject or activity that is kept for future use is referred to as a record. Preserving records assists organizations in making better judgments and developing appropriate policies, resulting in enhanced effectiveness and efficiency The position of the business records management concept in SMEs
Records management programs aids in improving the effectiveness of records as a management memory that manages the hours, equipment, and space given for records, and in simplifying intra-organisational and communication challenges by coordinating and protecting an institution’s records. Information and data derived from a successful and efficient records management program help businesses plan effectively and make informed decisions, as well as preserve facts and statistics for future use. As a result, the enterprise’s organization and management will be more efficient and effective. The success and growth of a corporation are influenced by financial accounting systems. Other academics agreed that the success of the SME sector will be determined by the quality of financial accounting data used. As a result, there is a link between the quality of accounting systems used in a commercial setting and the performance of the business.

Further literature divulges; inadequate knowledge on record keeping, low educational levels, the cost for hiring professional accountants and owners attempt to keep records in their memory are also challenges that result in poor records-keeping among SMEs. inefficiency and lack of records have been indisputable factors in the collapse of many SMEs. Many SMEs failed because owners and managers were unable to make timely and important managerial choices due to a lack of proper records. Most of the people have mentioned the advantages of keeping records. Some people wonder why certain SME owners don’t keep track of their finances.

RECORDS MANAGEMENT AND DATA MANAGEMENT: CLOSING THE GAP that inadvertently contribute to silos, and scrutinizing the impact of emergent technologies such as networked office systems, this study advocates for a more integrated and comprehensive strategy. Beyond highlighting the disparities, the study offers a visionary perspective on bridging the gap between these two essential functions. It underscores the common objectives shared by records and data management, emphasizing the need for a unified approach. As we navigate the complexities of the digital era, the study accentuates the role of archivists as pivotal figures in fostering collaboration and convergence. The establishment of retention and disposition schedules, as advocated by archivists, emerges as a strategic lever for change within organizations. This research contends that these schedules, which encompass the identification, retention, conservation, and disposition of recorded information, serve as not just administrative tools but as vehicles for transformative organizational change. By focusing on the proactive role of archivists and the broader integration of records and data management practices, this study champions a future where information governance is not merely a set of isolated functions but a seamlessly integrated and strategically aligned organizational imperative. Every document tells a story; manage them wisely, and you'll shape a narrative of organizational excellence C A S E S T U D Y BACKGROUND OF STUDY In this insightful study, we delve into the historical evolution and the prevalent disparities between records management and data management within government organizations. The objective is not merely to uncover the existing challenges but to serve as a catalyst for a paradigm shift in how we approach information management. By addressing entrenched stereotypes associated with records managers and data specialists, examining legislative frameworks BY: NUR ADLINA 19
In discussing the perceived gap between records management and data management, it becomes evident that the distinction is largely rooted in historical perceptions rather than inherent differences. The traditional image of records management conjures thoughts of file clerks handling paper records, while data management is associated with computer specialists overseeing complex databases. However, both fields involve the application of management principles to an organization's information holdings, revealing a conceptual unity despite perceived disparities. The fragmentation extends beyond perception to legislative and policy frameworks, creating challenges for professionals seeking a holistic approach to information management. In the Canadian federal government, laws like the Access to Information Act and the National Archives Act encompass all recorded information, yet policies are divided between hardcopy and electronic data processing records. Efforts to develop comprehensive information management policies face controversy, as defining roles and responsibilities proves challenging. Moreover, the disparate backgrounds and skills of records managers and data management professionals contribute to the perceived gap, hindering the realization of a more integrated and strategic approach to information management within organizations. RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT Guardians of the archives, custodians of knowledge – record managers shape the legacy of an organization. RECORD VS DATA 20
TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES The disparity between information systems professionals and records managers extends beyond education and skills to encompass the tools and techniques each group employs. Records managers focus on unstructured text, managing documents like memoranda and reports with tools such as subject file classification systems and retention schedules. In contrast, information systems professionals deal with structured data processed through systematic steps, using tools like the systems development life cycle and data dictionaries. Despite the evolution of data management concepts and strategic information planning, the corporate approach has yet to comprehensively address information holdings outside computerized systems, posing a challenge for organizations. The impending convergence of records management and data management is evident in the rise of networked office systems. As organizations grapple with the management of electronic information, especially in documentbased environments, the need for a corporate approach becomes apparent. While systems integrators and institutions acquiring these networked systems recognize the value of records management concepts, the evolution of these systems will eventually necessitate the integration of data management principles. This juncture marks the potential convergence of the documentoriented world of records management with the data-oriented world of data management within networked office systems. RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT 21
THE CORPORATE APPROACH The convergence of document and data management concepts within the intricate office systems environment calls for the development of a comprehensive information plan. To facilitate a planned integration of records management and data management within a corporate approach to information management across office systems, a strategic understanding of how the tools and techniques from both domains can be harmonized is crucial. This involves exploring relationships between file classification systems and data dictionaries, retention schedules and update/delete cycles, as well as document protection and data integrity procedures. A comprehensive policy framework needs to be established to assign clear responsibility and accountability to key players in both realms, recognizing the significant role of users in managing information within a corporate context. This plan, formulated independent of specific technologies, should comprehensively address the introduction and utilization of both information technology and management practices. It must accommodate various information types associated with document-based and data-based application environments. As the imperative for users to bring order to their increasingly sophisticated information holdings grows, the integration of records and data management becomes critical. Both office systems vendors and information practitioners need to respond by moving toward a more unified approach to information management, acknowledging the evolving needs of users and the complexities of modern information landscapes. The disciplined archivist is the architect of an enduring legacy. Manage records with precision, and you build a foundation for greatness RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT 22
The introduction emphasizes the critical role of transparency in preventing corruption within public administrations, aligning with Justice Brandeis' notion that "sunlight is the best of disinfectants." Transparent public administrations aid in monitoring activities, preventing conflicts of interest and corruption, and empowering citizens to act as auditors. The ISO 15489 standard underscores the importance of records management systems in ensuring transparency throughout the records' lifecycle. The concept of "transparency by design" involves incorporating transparency obligations into a record's lifecycle, necessitating a comprehensive study of procedural stages, document circuits, and values. The paper aims to demonstrate how transparency by design positively impacts preventing corruption risks associated with information management in public administrations. In the realm of business, the ink on paper echoes louder than words. Let record management be the scribe of your success RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT IMPROVINGRECORDS MANAGEMENTTO PROMOTE TRANSPARENCYAND PREVENTCORRUPTION 0 6 | C A S E S T U D Y BY: NUR ADLINA BACKGROUND OF STUDY The methodology section outlines the analysis of how transparency by design contributes to addressing corruption risks related to records management. The hypothesis posits that existing regulations on transparency and records management lack transparency by design mechanisms for public administrations to combat corruption risks. The study examines corruption in Spain, underscores the role of records management in managing corruption-related irregularities, and analyzes regulations to identify mechanisms for addressing these irregularities. The lack of specific regulations for transparency by design is highlighted as a limitation on the role of records management in preventing and combating corruption. 23
Corruption ranks as a significant concern among Spaniards, with 37.3% identifying it as a top-three national problem, according to a 2017 poll. However, perceptions might not align with the actual prevalence of corruption, with political corruption being more dominant than administrative. Despite efforts to combat corruption directly, indirect measures fostering good governance and administration have proven more effective. Transparency is a key element in the fight against corruption, as it prevents conflicts of interest, fosters integrity, and discourages corruption by shedding light on informal agreements. Records management plays a crucial role in achieving transparency by providing the operational foundation for creating quality documentation, tracking decisions, planning, and preserving records over time. 24 RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT TRANSPARENCY AND ITS IMPACT ON REDUCING CORRUPTION Effective records management ensures traceability, accessibility, and reliability of information, contributing to transparency and accountability. The management of records also helps prevent corruption by reducing risks such as the failure to create records, improper access, and unauthorized destruction. Identifying and addressing these risks contributes significantly to improving transparency and preventing corruption, even though records management alone may not entirely eliminate corruption. Working within standardized records management systems is essential, as it allows organizations to identify information requirements, improve workflows, and simplify processes continuously. Transparency and accountability should be integrated into records' lifecycle, starting from creation, to ensure the reliability of published or accessible information and the trustworthy functioning of the records management system, ultimately positively Preserve the present for a prosperous impacting corruption prevention. future. Record management is the bridge between the two.
Recent years have seen substantial progress in public transparency regulations in Spain, with the Catalan Law standing out for its inclusion of records management. However, in general, transparency legislation overlooks this crucial aspect. The Catalan law emphasizes a unified records management system, integration with transparency portals, and interoperability. It mandates the creation of a transparency portal, thematic and chronological organization of information, and records appraisal. Additionally, the law outlines mechanisms for both active and passive transparency, ensuring proactive dissemination of truthful information and public access to records. Collaborative transparency encourages the reuse of administration information for increased public oversight. Catalonia's Law 10/2001 underscores the region's commitment to advanced archives and records management, aligning with societal interests and emphasizing transparency in public administration. The law integrates records management with administrative functions, public services, and cultural heritage, explicitly linking it to transparency. It emphasizes providing metadata associated with transparency systems throughout the documentation lifecycle. The legislation addresses the disposition of public documents, considering their cultural, informative, or legal value for preservation or destruction based on established regulations. Additionally, it regulates records destruction, ensuring adherence to criteria set by the National Committee for Records Access, Appraisal, and Disposition to mitigate corruption risks by preserving evidence. RECORDS IMR 652 MANAGEMENT In the symphony of information, ef ective record management conducts the harmony of ef iciency. DISCUSSION: AN ANALYSIS OF CURRENT SPANISH LEGISLATION REGULATIONS ON PUBLIC TRANSPARENCY In recent years, Spain has seen significant developments in regulations for public transparency, particularly in the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) by public administrations. Laws such as 11/2007 and 39/2015 focus on the transition to electronic administration, emphasizing the need for erecords to be stored securely and ensuring authenticity. Challenges arise in determining which records should be archived electronically, impacting corruption risk. Compliance with the National Security Framework, National Interoperability Framework, and Technical Interoperability Standard is crucial for maintaining equivalence to traditional archives and managing digital records effectively. The electronic case file's index, signed electronically, serves as a tool for ensuring integrity and immutability. REGULATIONS ON ARCHIVES AND RECORDS MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS ON E-GOVERNMENT 25
