I work for a medium sized ISP, we currently have about 39,000 km of fiber laid out. We use a GIS tool (GE SmallWorld) so our method is relying a bit on that, but I'll share it with you, it might give you some ideas.
Every fiber is tagged with a unique number. This is done on every patch cord along a particular fiber using these kind of tags. That number is then referenced in the drawing that document the path of this fiber, origin, destination, circuit name/number and client info.
When we do a drawing for a new circuit, we will put in the origin site name, rack number, shelf number, port number. Same goes for the destination. We will also put the cable name and fiber number along the way, including splice closure name and splice position if works need to be done in there. It will end up looking like this :
1013324: KDRE 101-8-33 / FRRF 5-2-19 : C1992-24, C1993-24, C1994-12, C3322-96. Splice at FF-988, between C1993-24 and C1994-12, splice 2E4.
Explained : Link 1013324, from site KDRE, rack 101, shelf 8, port 33 to site FRRF, rack 5, shelf 2, port 19. Rack numbers under 100 are wall mounts, shelf number is the position number from the bottom, 8 positions in a telco rack, 6U high each, 44 positions in a standard rack, 1U high each. Then the cable-fiber list. Then required work. Our splice closures have 6 splice holders per plate, lettered A to F. 2E4 means 2nd plate, splice holder E, position 4.
When you have your links documented like that, you are then able to document whole routes easily :
R2232: Links 1013324 KDRE-FRRF, 1014454 FRRF-SRER, 1043776 SRER-DDRG
Then you can reference the route number on the circuit :
Client A, 1G DIA, Bidi 1310/1550, R2232.
Of course, this method is easier when you have a software that can manage all these as a relational database. Changes are propagated and documented in an automated fashion. Before we had Smallworld, we were using Excel and Visio for documentation, and AutoCAD for the construction drawings. Now it's all done via Smallworld.
Hope this helps.
