A document is a file that you can be create, save, and subsequently retrieve and update, REPLACING the old version with the UPDATED version.

A record is a reference to information and provides metadata to manage the information. Records can electronic or physical (i.e. a document STORED in CE or a physical book).

A document which is added to an IBM FileNet P8 content repository, but it is not YET declared as a record is called as ‘document’, not a record. As soon as the document is declared as a record, we consider the document a record.

Document objects are stored in the Records-enabled content Object Store (ROS) and the corresponding record objects are stored in the File Plan Object Store (FPOS).
