As an organization uses the Aptify system, the amount of certain transactional data grows over time, such as Record History information. An organization may wish to archive older transactional information and remove it from the database server.
Aptify provides an archive tool to move Lists and Record History information from the Aptify database server to another server for safekeeping.
There are two services associated with the archive feature:
- Archive Types: This entity defines the type of information that can be archived. Aptify includes two Archive Types records in the standard product installation: one for archiving Lists and one for archiving Record History. See "About the Archive Types Form" in the Admin Guide for more information on the Archive Types service.
- Archive Runs: This entity launches the archive process and stores information on previous archive operations for tracking purposes.
