C. SOP-000114, Control of Quality Records D. SOP-000220, ORA Records Management Program 6. Procedure 6.1. Record Identification A. Records are identifiable to the firm, product, person or event to which they pertain. Records are dated and identify the person who established the record. B. Laboratory records contain sufficient information to maintain an audit trail (see Attachment B) 6.2. Recording and Error Correction A. Electronic records within information management systems have audit trails to track changes and corrections. B. All work performed is recorded legibly. Work is recorded in such a manner that another individual, competent in the same field, may repeat the work described solely from the description written without additional explanation. C. Entries contain the date and initials or date and signature of the person performing each laboratory activity and reviewing data and results . Electronic entries in data recording systems such as Field Accomplishments and Tracking System (FACTS), Quality Management Information System (QMiS) or other electronic tracking system provide an audit trail. D. If entries are not electronic, they are made in ink. No erasures or obliterations are made. Space not used are indicated with a line. E. Corrections are made by drawing a single line through the incorrect entry, entering the correct information, and initialing and dating the change. For the most current and official copy, check QMiS. Title: FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION OFFICE OF REGULATORY AFFAIRS ORA Laboratory Manual Volume II Document Number: ORA-LAB.4.13 Record and Data Management Revision #: 02 Revised: 05/15/2019 Page 4 of 11 Electronic entries in data recording systems such as an electronic tracking system provide an audit trail of changes. F. Data or information is not discarded without explanation. Both original and amended data must be retained. To discard, the data or information is crossed out, initialed, dated and the reason for discarding indicated. Electronic entries in data recording systems provide an audit trail or require comments for data that is not used. 6.3. Electronic Records A. Electronic records and data files are backed up on a regular basis to safeguard against the loss of information due to equipment malfunctions or human error. B. Access to backup records are periodically confirmed and a record of the periodic confirmation is retained. See local procedures for specific policy, procedures, and schedules. C. External labels of disk and diskettes or CDs are labeled to facilitate accurate filing and retrieval of electronic records. Examples of information that may be included on the label are: 1. subject or functional title which identifies the information, 2. inclusive dates of information contained on the diskettes or CDs, and 3. identification of the software program used to access the information. D. Laboratories periodically confirm access to backup records according to local procedures. 6.4. Access Access to records is restricted to prevent unauthorized use and amending of information. See local procedures for specific policy and procedures. 6.5. Filing and Storage A. Records are kept on the premises and secured (e.g. in a cabinet or drawer) when not being actively used. B. Records are stored in dry and clean locations. Storage areas and cabinets are labeled. Records may not be stored in obscure locations that are not identified. See local procedures for specific policy and procedures for how and where records are filed and stored C. Analytical worksheets are submitted to the collecting program area and not stored by the analyzing laboratory in general. Electronic reports and records of laboratory data are maintained in the applicable web application, such as Field Accomplishments and Compliance Tracking System (FACTS), For the most current and official copy, check QMiS.

D. Backup records are stored in a separate location from the original records. 6.6. Record Retention A comprehensive description of FDA record retention policy is described in SOP000114 Control of Quality Records and SOP-000220 ORA Records Management Program. A. Attachment A is the general laboratory records schedule. B. Additional policy and procedure may be found in local procedures. 6.7. Disposal of Records After the retention period has expired records are destroyed or transferred to an agency storage facility, for example, the Federal Records Center (FRC). Disposal of documents is in accordance with guidelines described in agency policy statements and directives. 6.8. Archival of Documented Procedures A. Superseded and outdated laboratory operating procedures and work instructions (controlled copies), etc. are removed from accessible locations and archived. Records may be labeled as "Archived" or "Obsolete." B. Master lists are updated. 6.9. Other Quality Records Quality records (e.g. audit reports, reviews, function verification and preventive maintenance charts, quality control charts, corrective actions) are periodically archived. Best practice is to archive per calendar year or fiscal year. Local procedures should specify the schedule. 7. Glossary/Definitions A. Archive process of moving records or electronic files that are no longer actively used or current to a location for retention for a defined period. B. Records Cut Off is a file break, or ending of files at regular intervals, usually at the close of a fiscal or calendar year or when a case is closed. Records Cut Off is used to start the retention period for a record. C. Data file A data file is related numeric, graphic or textual information that is organized in a strictly prescribed form and format. For the most current and official copy, check QMiS. Title: FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION OFFICE OF REGULATORY AFFAIRS ORA Laboratory Manual Volume II Document Number: ORA-LAB.4.13 Record and Data Management Revision #: 02 Revised: 05/15/2019 Page 6 of 11 D. Electronic record An electronic record is information recorded in a form that only a computer can process. Electronic records include numeric, graphic and textual information. E. Form A form is a document with a fixed arrangement of captioned spaces designed for entering and extracting prescribed information. Forms become a record once filled out. F. Non-record Non-records are copies of memoranda or letters sent to an office or an employee for information only and for whose filing or maintenance no one in the office is responsible. G. Records Records are materials created or received by an agency and that are preserved as evidence of the activities of the agency or for its information value. H. Records Control Schedule - provides mandatory instructions and authority on how long to keep records (retention) and when they can be destroyed and/or transferred to alternate storage facilities or NARA Archives (disposition). I. Retention time Period or amount of time records are kept before disposal/destroyed or archival. Starts at the time the record cutoff has been reached. J. Technical records Technical records are accumulations of data and information which result from carrying out tests or calibrations and which indicate whether specified quality or process parameters are achieved. K. Controlled copy A controlled copy is a document that is numbered and issued to an individual, the contents of which will be updated after distribution. L. Uncontrolled copy An uncontrolled document is a document that is current at the time of issue but for which no attempt will be made to update it after distribution; document is marked "Uncontrolled Copy". 8. Records A. Field Accomplishments and Tracking System (FACTS) B. Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) C.
