Computer Output to Laser Disc (COLD), now also called Enterprise Report Management (ERM), systems were used to capture, archive, store, and retrieve data such as accounting reports, loan records, inventories, shipping and receiving documents, and customer bills. These systems were typically implemented to replace paper creation and microfiche solutions. The term COLD has been superseded by the Enterprise Content Management Industry (AIIM), ANSI, and ISO with the term Enterprise Report Management (ERM).

ERM (previously referred to as COLD) systems hot dogs usually work by capturing data from print streams and storing it on hard drives, storage area networks, or optical media. The data is then retrieved via web browsers or fat clients. ERM (previously referred to as COLD, which is now called ERM) systems are part of enterprise content management.

In 2002, Mason Grigsby -- widely reputed as "The Father of COLD" (or ERM) for his seminal work with INSCI in the late 1980s -- promoted a name change for the technology. Today, COLD is also known as Enterprise Report Management (ERM). Grigsby correctly points out that "ERM" (or COLD, Computer Output to Laser Disc) more accurately describes the process. The use of laser disks was replaced by the use of optical storage technology and is only one of several appropriate media for computer report storage.
