'orderly-documented' originates from the combination of 'orderly' and 'documented', where 'orderly' means 'arranged or organized' and 'documented' means 'recorded in documents'.

'Orderly' and 'documented' have been used separately in English since the 14th and 15th centuries, respectively, and combined in modern usage to describe something that is both organized and recorded.

Initially, 'orderly' meant 'arranged in order', and 'documented' meant 'recorded in writing'. The combination retains these meanings, emphasizing systematic recording.
