Chapter 2. Getting Started with the Alfresco Records Management Module

Before we get started with discussing the details of the Records Management software implementation, it is important to point out that the software implementation is only one element of a successful Records Management program. People, process, and culture often are as big, if not bigger, components than the software. With that in mind, let's now shift gears and begin our discussion of Alfresco Records Management software.

In this chapter, we will describe:

• How to acquire and install Alfresco Records Management software

• How to set up the Records Management site within Alfresco Share

• Some of the internal workings of Alfresco Share involved in creating the Records Management site
