Set up the ten year retention of the system documentation

Bring the five components of Article 18(1) together per high-risk system in an identifiable place, record both the date of placing on the market and the date of putting into service, calculate the end date from the later moment, and assign the upkeep to a role rather than to a person.

The official source remains authoritative. This is general information about obligations and not legal advice. See this object on the map
