Outcomes
Outcomes are sometimes referred to as disposal classes. Essentially, an outcome is where a retention period is attached to a function and activity – i.e. this is where the record belongs in the classification scheme, this is how long it needs to be retained for, based on this date event, and what needs to happen when this date is reached.
Examples of Outcomes include:
Financial Management – Accounting – Destroy – 5 years –Date Created
Legal Services – Advice – Review – 7 years – Last modified
It is important to note, that like patterns, outcomes are not actively used in RecordPoint until used within a rule.
