Identification and Traceability
Whether a record is stored locally or centrally in electronic or hardcopy form, the records shall be
traceable. The record is required to be assigned a unique identifier, for example, Oracle Universal
Records Management system assigned sequential numeric number, in accordance with the UOW
Records Management Guideline. Traceability of a record will come from identification methods,
e.g. alpha numeric, sequential numbering, computer generated and managed record management.
