Record Retention

AS9100 does not dictate where to identify the record retention for each of your records, so you can do so in either procedure that you choose. We often recommend that each procedure that has a record includes a listing of records that gives the detail of how long the record will be kept, but exactly how you do this is up to you. You should also not that not all processes in the QMS require a documented procedure to be written in order to meet the requirements.

You can read more on the new requirements for procedures and records in AS9100 in the article: A new approach to document and record control in AS9100, https://advisera.com/9100academy/knowledgebase/new-approach-to-document-and-record-control-in-as9100/
