T1 ECM 4.02 INTRODUCTION TO ECM TRAINERS NOTES
WHAT IS A CORPORATE RECORD?
The international standard ISO 15489 (International Standard on Records Management) defines a corporate record as: 'information created, received and maintained as evidence and information by an Agency or person, in pursuance of legal obligations or in the transaction of business and kept as evidence of such activity' Corporate Records can be created, received and stored in a variety of formats and media. They can be: 
verbal and visual (e.g. audio and video) 
physical or hard copy (e.g. paper, film, samples) or 
electronic (e.g. data, documents, e‐mail held electronically). Corporate Record examples can include: Data Publications E‐mails PowerPoint Presentations Word documents Voice mail Excel spreadsheets Recordings video and audio Letters Photos Maps Web pages Plans If you are not sure whether something is a record or not, ask yourself the following questions. 
Does it relate to my work? 
Does it form part of my agency's business? 
Does it authorise an action or require a response? 
Does it add value to an existing record? Page 2 of 38

Does it show how a transaction was dealt with? 
Does it show how a decision was reached? 
Does it show when and where an event happened? 
Does it indicate who was involved and what advice was given? 
Is there any legislation that requires the record being kept? 
Is it a formal draft of a Cabinet Submission, an Agreement or a legal document? If you answer 'yes' to one or more of them then YES, it is an official record. NAMING CONVENTIONS
The following guidelines should be used when saving documents or emails: Do not use abbreviations or acronyms. Acronyms are only endorsed if the full wording of the acronym is detailed prior e,g. Local Government Governance Panel (LGGP) If you want to use a date in a title you must put it at the beginning, using the DD Month (in full) YYYY convention e.g. 29 September 2012, not 290912. Never use initials, acronyms, abbreviations or ampersands (& symbol) in the title of a folder, file, document or record – always use the job title, full business name, for example, Chief Executive not CE, State Executive Committee not ST. Widely recognised acronyms and abbreviation (which may also contain an ampersand) may be used, these are specified in permitted acronyms outlined in ECM 98612. GETTING STARTED WITH ECM
Logging in and Getting Started with ECM “All access to ECM functions begins with logging in to the ECM Workplace.” 1. Double click the ECM Workplace icon from the desktop 2. A logon screen is returned – enter username and password and select OK Page 3 of 38
What does a Workplace Look Like? The Workplace delivers a user friendly consistent layout across all Roles. Different functions will become available based on what Roles you have been assigned. The Home Portal is the first tab in any workplace and can be customised allowing access to your most used functions and web. Workplace Banner MyIconPanel allows access to: 
My Workplace 
Announcements ‐ latest announcements 
Reminders – ability to set reminders Workplace Tabs Tabs provide access to functions and processes available. Workplace Buttons Understanding Workplace Tabs The types of Tabs available for your Workplace are home, activities I perform and useful websites Page 4 of 38
What is a Portal tab? A Portal Tab displays lists of functions, links or URLs via Portlets. A Portlet is a frame which displays content. Portals are initially displayed by selecting the tab name. A Portlet may be: 
Alerts ‐ A list of key business indicators potentially required action by the user. 
Announcements ‐ A user can have their “in‐box” of system messages displayed on the Workplace. 
Web Page ‐ Any URL. Using Reminders Use the reminders feature in the TechnologyOne products to prompt yourself, another user, or a group of users, to action a future task. TechnologyOne reminders work in a similar way to reminders in Microsoft Outlook Calendar, except there is no requirement for you to acknowledge the reminder. However, if you need to acknowledge an important reminder, you can select the option to create it as an appointment in your Microsoft Outlook Calendar. You can view, create, modify, or delete reminders assigned to you at any time, from any function. When you create a reminder, the system, by default assigns the reminder to you, references and links to the current function, and sets tomorrow as the due date. You can change these default settings, for example: After creating a reminder, you can change the date, time, or message details. However, to change the user/group assigned to the reminder, delete the existing reminder and create a new one. Opening the Reminders function displays your reminders scheduled for today that either you created for yourself, or another user created and assigned to you. Page 5 of 38
1. Click the Reminders link above your Workplace tabs. The Reminders function displays. 2. Then Click Create a Reminder in the Task Pane. The Create Reminder popup window displays. 3. Select the User/s you want to receive the Reminder. You can use the Pick list in the User field to select Users or Groups. 4. Or – you can ‘Create the Reminder in your Outlook Calendar.’ 5. Specify the date and time on which you want the reminder to display. When the reminder is due, a notification message will display for a few seconds in the lower right of the screen, in a similar way to that of an incoming email in Microsoft Outlook. 6. Modify the reminder message, if required. 7. Click OK. The system saves the reminder. 8. You can locate and view your reminder to check the details by selecting the Reminders link on the workplace.

Automatic workflows ‐ that will automatically start when a document is linked to a certain index(es) e.g. Action index When there is an active task issued on a document the details can be found in the Task section of the Document Properties. When a task has been completed the details move to the History section within the Document Properties. Notes that may be added during the task process are added to the Notes section within Document Properties.
