Closing Remarks I. Jay Record Master, We have talked about opening up a nostalgic record store for a long time because the two of us have always been into records and collecting them. You have become a connoisseur and an expert with nostalgic records and your knowledge amazes me every day. Having stated that, I know that you do not have very much experience with how a business needs to operate and especially an understanding of the information systems that aid the business operation from making mistakes, quality control measures. This proposal will lay out five information systems that I think you should be aware of and grasp the concept behind them. I am not expecting you to become an expert overnight on these systems. I want you to know what other tools are out there to help make our dream a successful one. As I stated, there are five different types of information systems (IS) that I am proposing we utilize with the nostalgic record store. They are: 1. Functional Area IS | Supports the activities within a specific functional area | 2. Transaction Processing IS | Processes transaction data from business events | 3. Office Automation IS | Supports daily work activities of individuals and groups | 4. Management IS | Produces reports summarized...

They started Compass Record in year 1995 that based in Nashville. In this case, Brown show her interest in a new folk musician, Adair Roscommon. And, the main issue in this case is that Brown needs to make decision on whether to product and own the recording or just license it. Both of the decision carry different risks and benefic and it also require different amount of investment . To elaborate, if they decide to product and own the recording and the record are unpopular in the public then their company will face a big losses. This is because the profit is not enough to cover the money they spend on it. However, if they decide to own and product the record, they are entitle...

...past, 'records management' was sometimes used to refer only to the management of records which were no longer in everyday use but still needed to be kept - 'semi-current' or 'inactive' records, often stored in basements or offsite. More modern usage tends to refer to the entire 'lifecycle' of records - from the point of creation right through until their eventual disposal. The ISO 15489: 2001 standard defines records management as "The field of management responsible for the efficient and systematic control of the creation, receipt, maintenance, use and disposition of records, including the processes for capturing and maintaining evidence of and information about business activities and transactions in the form of records". The ISO defines records as "information created, received, and maintained as evidence and information by an organization or person, in pursuance of legal obligations or in the transaction of business". The International Council on Archives (ICA) Committee on Electronic Records defines a record as "a recorded information produced or received in the initiation, conduct or completion of an institutional or individual activity and that comprises content, context and structure sufficient to provide evidence of the activity." The key word in these definitions is evidence. Put simply, a record can be defined as "evidence of an event". Records Management is the storage preservation and retrieval of information in the shortest possible time.(MUDD) Records management...

...Abstract /Project summary Problem statement – improper records management in the finance department . What is records management? Records management is a system to manage the creation, copying, distribution, filing, retrieval, storage and disposal of the records created or received in the course of business. Records are information in any media created or received in the course of business, regardless of location or physical form. They include not only paper and electronic files (including databases and e-mail) but also information stored in CDs, audio, video and data tapes, sound recordings, films, photographs, books, maps and many other media. Why is records management important? Records contain information that is a valuable resource and an important business asset. They are required as evidence of policies and activities of companies (to fulfil legal, tax and audit obligations) and for the day-to-day management of businesses. Effective records management enables efficient and systematic capture and retention of information contained within records, and therefore maximises their use as a business resource, while minimising the time, money and effort spent on their retrieval and storage. Records enable business organisations to: conduct their business in an orderly, efficient and accountable manner; deliver services in a consistent and fair manner; support and document policy formation and managerial decision making; provide consistency...

...RECORDS AND ‘RECORDNESS’ INTRODUCTION The purpose of this assignment is twofold. To test understanding and to demonstrate that the overall quality of my chosen sample is based on a reasoned and unbiased evaluation. I will describe my sample, highlight its ‘recordness’ against the internationally recognised standard and underline its key criteria. In so doing my aim is to make an objective comparison and simultaneously corroborate my understanding of the essence of what makes a record. First, some background. Surprisingly, despite the fact that records has been a kept by us for thousands of years it was not until relatively recently (2001) that an internationally accepted records management standard, known as ISO 15489 set out a standard definition of a record. Accordingly, a record as set out in ISO 15489, is defined as “information created, received, and maintained as evidence and information by an organization or person, in pursuance of legal obligations or in the transaction of business.” Against this definition I have chosen a record that I refer to regularly at work to test its ‘recordness’. My sample is the Foreign Office's (FCO) Archive Inventory of its paper Inventory. The FCO’s paper file inventory consists of data from both the 2013 and 2014 record audits and is a full inventory of its archive holdings and is an accurate record of the FCO corporate business activities by the various departments of the organisation and provides information of the records...

Record stores used to be a part major part in American Culture of Teens and young adults they would line up at midnight waiting for the midnight release of the new Beatles album. Record stores where ideas where shared from music to politics. But then the big chain stores selling Records for lower prices and ITunes started the digital downloads the record stores could not compete and store owners were forced to close up shop for good. But there still record stores out there and when you find one it is like a diamond in the coal. I arrived \ on a less then pleasant day the weather was cold and rainy so before I left the safety of my car I turned my collar up to face the cold and made a bee line to the store so fast it would but Usain Bolt to shame. When I walked in the store I was greeted by the smell of coffee and sound of The Rolling Stones song Monkey Man playing over the store speakers with the owner of the store john singing along to the song and throwing his arms up like a monkey. As soon as you walk into the store your face to face with a giant rack of used DVDs ranging from Driving Miss Daisy to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre I was immediately welcomed by john who sitting down in front of this cash register with a sign on it that read “No Personal...

Most of the medical facilities have their own method of achieving these duties. There are some similarities and differences between the dimension of the facility, but regardless all of the medical facilities have an accountability to handle the records and make certain the patients privacy. Since there are different size medical facilities they have different areas as to where they keep the medical records for instance, filing drawer and a private sealed room, or a physician’s desk. Admittance to medical records is restricted to the faculty. Supervising access assist in problems with misplaced records, there would only be a small amount of faculty member who could have moved them, for that reason making it simpler to find. Finding a file can be hard for various reasons like; the file was taken by a faculty member they did what they had to do with the file, then another faculty member takes the file without citing the whereabouts of the file. To prevent these from happening you could have the staff use a check in and check out page. Health insurance portability and...

...Rob Seib Peter Paez Compass Records Suzie Wagstaff Background: Compass Records is run by Alison Brown and her husband Gary West and is a folk and grass roots label. Both Brown and West were entrenched in this industry and decided to open the label in 1995. Brown who received an MBA from UCLA is very business oriented and realizes that with a small recording company like Compass Records, they cannot afford to make mistakes when signing artists. The company was faced with a dilemma about whether the company should produce Roscommon outright or license the new upcoming artist. Historically, Compass had preferred to license their artists but realize that there is a risk in losing her. It is very expensive to produce an album (even with the advantage of purchasing their own recording studio) and could run the company 80-150 thousand dollars for a new artist. Their business is also 100 percent consignment. They are paid only for the number of records sold not for the number shipped. Assumptions: * Compass Records’ WACC is 12%. * Projected to sell 10,000 copies of Roscommon’s CD at stated prices. * Total marketing and promotion costs are upfront and at $17,000 of which only half of these costs are recoupable. * Assume that Compass records will only have to pay half of the merchandise royalty if they choose to produce and own as stated. * Assume all figures and projections...

...Electronic Medical Records Megan Granger HCS/320 March 4, 2012 Lynn Belle What is Electronic Medical Records With the technology created, paper-based medical records have entered the state of existence. According to “Electronic Medical Records” (2005), “A patient record system is a type of clinical information system, which is dedicated to collecting, storing, manipulating, and making available clinical information important to the delivery of patient care. The central focus of such systems is clinical data and not financial or billing information. Such systems may be limited in their scope to a single area of clinical information (e.g., dedicated to laboratory data), or they may be comprehensive and cover virtually every facet of clinical information pertinent to patient care (e.g., computer-based patient record systems)." For over decades studies have been trying to create something for provider and patients to improve the communication between the two. Slowly each and every medical facility is switching from paper to electronic medical records, weighing out the inns and the odds (Electronic Medical Records, 2005). Impacting Communication in Healthcare Being one of the goals for creating and enforcing electronic medical records, communication has seen better outcomes. The electronic medical records systems contain availability to all notes, reports, lab work, and scanned documents. When a patient is communicating with the provider, all information what is said, is...

...Angela Cicchetti HIM 4/28/14 The storage and destruction of hybrid charts Angela Cicchetti HIM 4/28/14 The storage and destruction of hybrid charts Hybrid Records The use of a hybrid chart can be beneficial and yet at times it can be a liability if it is not looked after and stored correctly and efficiently. Hybrid charts are used in paper and computer format. The hybrid chart can be very useful and it also holds potential for liability if not stored correctly. The paper hybrid chart can be stored in a few different ways but it is up to the office manager to choose which method is the most efficient, effective and holds the less chances of liability for the healthcare facility. There are three processes that are implemented when storing a hybrid chart. These processes are creation and identification, storage and retrieval, and retention and disposition. As long as these three processes are integrated in the storage and usage of hybrid charts then the charts will be effective and protected from liability at the same time. The best charting system for the paper part of the hybrid chart depends on how big the organization and facility are that are filing and storing these paper charts. Smaller healthcare facilities use an alphabetical or numerical charting system to find the paper charts fast and efficiently. The larger healthcare facilities use more advanced chart filing systems such as a unit number system where the patient receives one number that...
