Valid period for stored documents (Archive Link)

Hello,
Can someone please confirm if the stored documents within Archive Link can be retrieved after more than 10 years or is there an expire date setting?
Thanks.

SAP does not work like "Mission Impossible", that a document disappears itself after a certain time.
If you archive documents, then it is still up to you, when you want to dispose this archive.
E.g. you have to keep financial data for 10 years as requested by law.
But you want keep your database small and want have a good performance.
So you decide to archive everything what is older than e.g. 2 years.
The older documents are written to an archive file and deleted from the table spaces.
The archive can stay in the SAP file system (quickest access) or in an external archive system like IXOS.
You have to make sure that you keep this archive with data older than 2 years for another 8 year to comply with the legal requirement.
If the 10 years have past, then you archive the archive information (this has the info where your archive is located)  itself  and remove the indexes to the archived documents that are older than 10 years.
Then you take the disk from the IXOS system and destroy it.
If you dont archive the archive infos (SARA for BC_ARCHIVE) and dont destroy the archive files then you may be able to access the data far beyond the 10 years.

    Is it possible to get the PDF file stored in Archive link and make it as an attachment in a notification. I think we need to get this PDF attachment and convert it into SOFM instance, then only we can make it as an attachment in notification  becoz notification can accept only SOFM instance right?

    Is there any configuration setting that needs to be enabled to have validity period for services.
    Any help would be highly appreciated.

  • Validity period for Mediclaim on ESS

    Hi All,
    I am facing following problem in case of Claims:

  • How to give valid period for tcodes

    Hi all,
             i have a question how to give a valid period for tcodes.
    Thanks&regards,
    rani.

    You can't.
    You can set validity dates for roles - you do this in the roles section of the user master record
    If you need a t-code to be locked for <b>everyone</b> for certain periods then you can look into a custom prog that uses tx SM01, though it usually is not a worthwhile control to mitigate the particular risk.

  • Date Range Validity periods for Addresses

    Hello,
    In the BP transaction when entering address details I cannot see a place to enter a validity period for the address even though in BUT020 there are database fields on this table to store a To and From date for and address.
    Does anyone know how to make these date field available for entry?
    Many thanks in advance.
    David

    Thanks.
    When I go to this in SPRO I can see the field 'BP Address: Time-Dependent Usages' for the role I need to change.
    However when I make this field 'optional' is still does not appear.
    If I select optional on some other fields e.g. 'Address-Indep.Communication Data: Mobile Telephone' this field appears.
    Is there anything else I need to do to make this field appear?

  • Validity Period for BP relationships

    Hello Experts,
    We are having a problem with the validity date in BP relationship. Our partner functions get replicated from ECC to CRM. However, if one of the partner function detail changes, the relationship come up with two values for the same partner function which is correct but both show the same validity to and from date.
    For eg if we have the payer XYZ for the sold to ABC from validity period 2008 to 2009 and the payer changed to EFG from 2009 to 9999, the relationship tab shows both the payer valid from 01.01.01 to 01.01.9999.
    The system then fails to determine the correct payer if an order comes through from MSA and stops with an error in CRM which then has to be processed manually.
    How can this problem be resolved so that the validity period comes up with the correct dates and the system can automatically pick up the correct partners?

    Hi,
    Please go to transaction BUBN and in that one field group would be there called 'Relationship Category/Role Definition Category'.
    Select that and go to "Field Group--> Fields" and add the following two fields:
    Table                        FieldName
    BUS050DFLD           DATE_FROM_STR
    BUS050DFLD           DATE_TO_STR
    Dont check any of the check boxes like "input field" and "not a required field".
    Save it and come out and then again launch BP trx to get the desired result.
    This is how i solved my problem in CRM 4.0.
    Please let me know if you have problems.

  • Enrollment Screen - Validity period for benefit plan

    Hi,
    At the enrollment screen (HRBEN0001), once click the adjustment reason, the respective benefit types and plans will be listed out. Also, the benefit plans have the "Validity period" showing as well (start date and end date).
    I understand that the date is configure at "administrative parameter" and the "adjustment reason" . But I needs to have the validity end date of the benefit plan to be displayed (at HRBEN0001) based on the validity period of the plan itself from table (T5UBA). Is it possible to do that?
    Thanks
    Nikki

    Hi Nikki,
    In configuration this cannot be done. However there is some badis that allow you to set up plan records date depending of the type of plan. These badis are:
    PBEN0038                       Set dates for Spending Account plans
    PBEN0039                       Set dates for Miscellaneous plans
    PBEN0040                       Set dates for HSA plans
    For other plan types I;m afraid only the dates from administrative parameter" and the "adjustment reason" can be used
    Hope this help

  • Best Apps for I Pad 2 for storing documents

    What are the best apps for storing and organizing documents.  Is Pages necessary for casual use?

    DropBox seems pretty good - it allows folders and is properly integrated with Finder so its easy to use on the desktop.  You can put most any type of file in the DropBox folders unlike iCloud where it seems you are given three folders only to use (Keynote, Pages and Numbers).  You don't seem to be able to create folders on the desktop in iCloud (using a browser) but you can create folders on the iPad by dropping one file ontop of another.
    DropBox allows you to organise files and folders any way you want with different kinds of files in the same folder.  iCloud (at the moment) seems to give you only three folders (one for each iWork app) which is not really how one would organise things in real life.
    Some usability issues with DropBox include:
    When you click on a file on the iPad/iPhone DropBox loads the document and displays it on the right - this takes a good few seconds.
    In order to open the document in the correct APP (e.g. Pages, Keynote, Adobe Reader, etc.) you must click the Open In  menu on the top right hand corner.  This loads the appropriate application which then mostly seem to copy the file to their environment and then you have to click on the file again to open it in the APP.   Seems like a very tedious way to do things and quick contrary to the normal intuitive ways one would expect the Apple environment to work.   Wish someone could explain why Apple has made it so ridiculously hard to simply open a document.
    If you edit a file in the APP on the iPad/iPhone then it seems impossible to copy the file back to DropBox.

  • Validation Rule for Accounting Document type

       I have an requirement  to block certain accounting doc type to get vendor line item post in that. For that I tried to block direct through OBA7 but not be able to also can't delete number range as it is shared by another doc type. My last option is Validation rule but i never work on this ,so any suggest how to create validation rule " To Block Accounting Doc type SO THAT THERE WILL NOT BE ANY line item posting occur in that doc type.
    Regards.

    ok sure.  OB28 callpoint 1.  Create a step under this callpoint.
    1)  Prerequisite is as follows:  note XXXX is your company code and ZZ is your doc type.
    BKPF-BUKRS = 'XXXX' AND
    BKPF-BLART = 'ZZ'
    2)  Then you need to enter the check.  Here you can just put FALSE.
    3)  The last part is to create your message.  Message type E so they get an error and then create a message number in the class that you choose and give it a description:
    Document Type 'ZZ' is not allowed
    Save it and wah lah! 
    Let me know how it goes.
