Archiving is available to PerfectApps On Premise versions only. It must first be enabled in the Administration Console and then turned on at the user level on the Account Settings > Users page before the Archiving Settings section is displayed on the Settings Dashboard. |
The Archiving Settings section of the Settings Dashboard enables you to archive app instances, restore previously archived instances or permanently delete archived instances. Archival of app instances moves data from the main system database into a secondary database, which can exist on a different host. This offers the following benefits:
•Reduces the data size in the main database and improves its performance.
•Removes old data clutter from Dashboards and improves manageability of remaining data.
•Supports company archiving policies.
Once an instance is archived, it will no longer appear in the Edit Apps tree or in the app instances summaries found in the Apps Dashboard. Data associated with archived instances will not appear in reports, and any notifications associated with archived instances will be canceled. If an archived instance is restored, it will once again appear in the Apps Dashboard and in reports.
This section will address the following archive-related topics:
•Assigning Archiving Permissions
•Reviewing Previously Archived Instances
•Accessing Archived Instances from the App Instance Summary Area
