Content Information Type Specification for Electronic Records Management Systems
The CITS ERMS has in its latest version (2.1.0) been extended with the textual document as well as undergone some minor changes in the XML schema. The CITS ERMS are supplied with a supplementary document for understanding the XML schema as well as the schema-generated documentation.
Guideline (Primer) for CITS ERMS
This guideline (primer) describes the ERMS specification. Some notes regarding implementation are also present, but, in most cases, these will not be enough to explain how it is conducted in each system because of the complexity of all the systems. The guideline will be an evolving document and thoroughly explained examples will be added continuously.
