We use O'Neil RSB Web software.
“Committed to leading the industry, the name O’Neil has become synonymous with accuracy, flexibility, experience and delivering results in records storage management. For 25 years software solutioneers for over 850 records centres in more than 60 countries.”
At File Centre we understand that your organisation’s reference may already be unique and our database records your own codes alongside ours, allowing quick and easy retrieval from either reference. The database assumes that your reference will also be unique and so does not allow duplications with the same client code.
The barcodes system we use provides unique references within our warehouse, no two items have the same code. The labels are self-adhesive and are designed to adhere to the box or file for its lifetime.
Our database holds barcodes and information on content, review dates, destruction dates and forms the basis of the inventories. When we collect new items the database recognises the new barcode and at this point we add the information that needs to be recorded on a new item in accordance with our service agreement with you. No boxes can be submitted to storage without a barcode.
Inventories tell us which boxes are in and out of store and can provide the full history of the movements of an item at the touch of a button. They can be searched on the smallest amount of information - just part of a name on a file within a box may be enough for us to track it down.
