After planning a new system of filing, it must be properly organized under any of the
following systems:
I. Centralized System. The centralized filing system may mean keeping (a) all files in
one place (b) all files of general interest centrally, while those of purely departmental
interest are kept by respective department and (c) keeping most of the files in
departments but controlled and staffed from one central point. A centralized filing
system provides for the housing of all important records in one location within the
organization. In other words, it means that all papers about the same subjects from
different departments are filed together on common files in the central filing
department. All records that need to be retained are forwarded by each department
to a central records area. Those departments wishing to refer to papers then borrow
the files from the central filing department. Centralized filing is not suitable for a large
sized organization because placing the central records in a location convenient for all
departments is virtually impossible. However, for smaller organizations, a centralized
system is more appropriate.
II. Decentralized System. A decentralized filing system is one in which the records of
each department are housed within that department until it is finally disposed off. This
system is more widely used because it allows control over them and has immediate
access to their own records.
(b) Savings in Time: as it does not involve searching of documents (as in the
case with central filing system), it saves time in locating the records.
3. Lack of Uniformity. As each department has its own record system, a lack of
uniformity exists in the total records system.
