Digital file management means that files and documents are not available in paper form but are instead electronically managed. This is done by organising the files through an electronic system, such as a Document Management System (DMS). With a DMS, digital files can be easily shared, collaboratively edited, and archived securely without much effort. This makes file management more organised, reduces the risk of losing documents, and minimises the error rate.
