Managing Records in Microsoft 365: A guide for Victorian public offices was developed to assist Victorian agencies in the management of records created and captured across the M365 environment. Whether your agency is implementing or currently managing an existing M365 environment, this guidance will be a useful resource in understanding the recordkeeping capabilities and limitations of M365. 

The guide was developed by M365 expert Andrew Warland who has spent many years working as a consultant across industries including government, advising and guiding organisations on effective recordkeeping within the M365 environment. 

It includes:

  • General information about Microsoft 365. 
  • Suggestions and (where appropriate) recommendations for the configuration of settings relating to the management of records across Microsoft 365
  • Details of an approach to information architecture in SharePoint.
     

Material in the Public Record Office Victoria archival collection contains words and descriptions that reflect attitudes and government policies at different times which may be insensitive and upsetting

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples should be aware the collection and website may contain images, voices and names of deceased persons.
