Procedure documentationArchiving and Destroying Recruiting Processes Using HRASR_EREC

 

You can use the HR Administrative Services: Recruiting Processes (HRASR_EREC) archiving object to archive or destroy business complete (processes that have the status Complete) recruiting process data, in the HCM Processes and Forms application area.

The following data linked to a process instance are not archived or destroyed:

  • Workflow instances (work items)

  • The process documents (forms and attachments) stored in the Digital Personnel File (DPF)

  • The process configuration (using the design time tool, transaction HRASR_DT).

Recruiting process data is regarded as person-related data in terms of data privacy, therefore, country-specific regulations may mean it is necessary to destroy this data after a defined retention period is reached.

The following are the areas from which data is archived or destroyed:

Table Name

Description

T5ASRPROCESSES

HR Administrative Services: Processes

T5ASRSCENARIOS

HR Administrative Services: Scenarios

T5ASRSTEPS

HR Administrative Services: Process Steps (Work Items)

T5ASRSTEPDETAILS

T5ASRCONTCASELNK

T5ASRDOCUMENTS

HR Administrative Services: Documents

T5ASRDOCCASELNK

SCMG_T_CASE

Case: Entity table for case

SCMG_T_CASE_ATTR

SCMGPREL_CLNT

In addition to the tables above, there are application specific tables, for the content repository documents and notes, which are either archived or destroyed by archiving classes LOIO and TEXT respectively. These both archiving classes are used in the archiving object.

For the archiving run, data from the following tables is retained and not deleted from the database:

  • T5ASRPROCESSES

  • T5ASRSCENARIOS

  • T5ASRSTEPS

  • T5ASRDOCUMENTS

  • POBJD_LEVEL

For all other remaining tables data is deleted from the database.

This archiving object has no relationship with any other archiving object. However, the HRASR_PD and HRASR_PA archiving objects for HCM Processes and Forms can be used to archive or destroy the organizational and employee processes respectively.

The Work Items from Workflow System (WORKITEM) archiving object can be used separately to archive or destroy the workflow instances (work items) related to the recruiting processes.
