ISO 23081 states that metadata must support assertions of integrity, authenticity, reliability and usability over time in business context. ISO 15489 requires records to remain authoritative through those characteristics: authentic (what it purports to be, created or sent by the purported agent at the purported time), reliable (trusted full and accurate content of the transaction), integrity (complete and unaltered), usable (locatable, retrievable, presentable, interpretable). These are assessed properties with evidence, not decorative flags.

ISO 15489 applies to records regardless of structure or form and treats capture into a records system as the act that places identified information under records controls. RiC-CM defines a Record as discrete information content formed and inscribed, at least once, on any persistent recoverable carrier by an agent in the course of activity. US 36 CFR 1220.18 / 44 U.S.C. 3301 additionally excludes extra copies kept only for reference, library or museum materials for exhibit, and personal files. This model stores a record-status on the object: document-not-captured, captured-record, nonrecord-copy, or jurisdiction-specific Federal-record, rather than splitting into two meta-models.
