Spec sheet · Takshan-DMS · Document management
Keep control of your records through their full lifecycle.
Takshan-DMS brings capture, classification, approvals and retention into one records system. Staff can see what is due for disposal, obtain approval and retain a destruction certificate. An active legal hold blocks the disposal process.

The platform layer
Synaptron configures Takshan-DMS around your file plan, approval routes and retention requirements. The existing lifecycle workflow provides the starting point for that implementation.
Station rail — the life of a record
- 01Capture
Capture records in a central register so staff can locate and track them.
- 02Classify
Assign a class that determines access, retention and disposal rules for the record.
- 03Route
Send files through defined approval routes and retain the approval history with the record.
- 04Retain
Apply the retention schedule associated with each record class. The register shows which records are due for review or disposal.
- 05Dispose
After retention expires, authorised staff can propose and approve destruction. A certificate records the completed disposal and remains available afterwards.
Legal hold
Block disposal while a legal hold is active.
Records under an active legal hold cannot pass through disposal. The hold must be lifted before destruction can proceed, even if the retention period has expired.

Deployment considerations
Takshan-DMS covers document and records management. OCR and digital-asset management are outside this published specification. If you need to migrate an archive or capture scanned documents, discuss those requirements with us. We will also review your security requirements during the session.
