Checks for /IAM/ACT
The preprocessing program checks whether archiving can run for the selected activities based on the lifecycle status.
Note
The residence time is already taken into account in the selection criteria for the preprocessing program (see Creating Preprocessing Variants for /IAM/ACT).
If the check was successful, the program sets the archiving status Marked for Archiving
.
Since, for reasons of consistency, only complete activity hierarchies for an issue or subissue (defects, effects, causes) can be archived, the preprocessing program checks whether all activities that belong to one activity branch beneath an issue, defect, cause, or effect are archivable.
Basic and extended activities and questions can only be archived if they have one of the following lifecycle statuses:
Completed (09
)
Canceled (10
)
Flagged for Deletion (64
)
Activities of the category Information
can be archived regardless of their lifecycle status if the parent activity has the archiving status Marked for Archiving
.
If an activity has further subactivities, these must also have the archiving status Marked for Archiving
.
