Introduction
Compliance meetings are critical for organizational governance and regulatory adherence. Whether you're conducting board meetings, shareholder gatherings, or audit reviews, proper documentation and management are essential for maintaining compliance standards.
RecordsKeeper.AI's Compliance Meeting module streamlines this entire process by providing an intuitive platform to schedule, organize, and document your compliance meetings with the added security of blockchain-backed audit trails. This guide will walk you through the step-by-step process of scheduling both virtual and physical compliance meetings, managing participants, creating agendas, and ensuring all your compliance meetings are properly documented and searchable.
Getting Started with Compliance Meetings
Step 1: Accessing the Compliance Meeting Module
Log in to your RecordsKeeper.AI account at https://app.recordskeeper.ai/
From the dashboard, navigate to the left sidebar menu
Click on the "Compliance Meetings" option
Select "New Meeting" to begin the meeting creation process
Step 2: Selecting the Meeting Category
The first step in scheduling a compliance meeting is selecting the appropriate meeting category:
Board Meeting: Select this option for meetings with the Board of Directors of your company
Shareholders Meeting: Choose this when organizing meetings specifically for company shareholders
Other Meeting: Select this option for any compliance meeting that doesn't fall into the above categories (such as audit committees, risk management meetings, etc.)
After selecting the appropriate category, you'll need to choose a meeting sub-category from the dropdown menu (e.g., Annual General Meeting, Quarterly Board Meeting, etc.).
Step 3: Choosing the Meeting Format
Next, you'll need to decide whether your meeting will be:
Physical Meeting w/ Link: Select this option if you're hosting an in-person meeting but want to provide a virtual meeting link for remote participants
Virtual Meeting: Choose this option if the meeting will be conducted entirely online via platforms like Zoom, Teams, or Meet
Step 4: Configuring Meeting Details
Once you've selected the meeting format, you'll need to provide essential meeting information:
Meeting Title: Enter a clear, descriptive title for your meeting (e.g., "Q1 2025 Board Review")
Meeting Type: Select the specific meeting type from the dropdown (e.g., Quarterly Board Meeting)
Meeting Link (if applicable): For virtual or hybrid meetings, enter the video conferencing link
Meeting Time: Set the date, start time, and end time for your meeting
Use the checkbox for "All day" if it's an all-day meeting
Meeting Notes (Internal Only): Add any notes that are visible only to meeting organizers
Meeting Description: Enter a description that will be visible to all participants
Step 5: Setting Up Reminders
RecordsKeeper.AI allows you to configure multiple reminders to ensure all participants are properly notified:
First Reminder: Typically set for 1 week before the meeting
Second Reminder: Optional additional reminder (e.g., 3 days before)
Third Reminder: Another optional reminder (e.g., 1 day before)
Final Reminder: Last reminder before the meeting
Just Before Meeting: A final notification sent minutes before the meeting starts
For each reminder, select the appropriate timing from the dropdown menu. This automated reminder system ensures maximum attendance and preparation.
Step 6: Managing Participants
The Participants section allows you to add and manage all meeting attendees:
Click the "Add Participants" button in the top-right corner
Search for participants by name or email in the search box
Add participants with appropriate roles:
Host: The primary meeting organizer
Co-Host: Secondary meeting organizers who can help manage the meeting
Participant: Regular meeting attendees with full participation rights
Observer: Attendees who can view but may have limited participation abilities
For each participant, you'll see their:
Name
Email ID
Profile/Role in the company
Type (Host, Co-Host, Participant, Observer)
Actions (including the option to remove)
You can add multiple participants and assign them different roles based on their involvement in the meeting.
Step 7: Creating the Meeting Agenda
A well-structured agenda is crucial for effective compliance meetings. To create your agenda:
Click on the "Add Agenda" button
For each agenda item, provide:
Agenda Title: A clear title for the agenda item
Presenter (Optional): The name of the person who will present this item
Agenda Description: A detailed description of what will be covered
Link (Optional): Any relevant link for reference materials
Minutes Assigned: The time allocated for this agenda item (5-60 minutes)
Attachments: Upload any relevant documents by clicking "Add Files"
After filling in all fields, click "Save" to add this item to your agenda
Repeat the process to add multiple agenda items
You can reorder agenda items based on priority or logical flow
Step 8: Reviewing and Finalizing the Meeting
Before finalizing your meeting:
Review all meeting details, participants, and agenda items
Make any necessary adjustments
Click "Next" to proceed through each section
On the final review page, confirm all details are correct
Click "Finish" to create and schedule the meeting
Once your meeting is created, all participants will receive email notifications with the meeting details and calendar invitations.
