DMS - Document Validity

[#1]

Hi to all,

Does anybody know if exist a functionality to handle date of validity of a DMS document? I mean, after approving a document (with the "Release Flag"), I need to fix "manually" a date that the document will be "valid to", the date that the document is "valid from" is automatic when the status with the release indicator is set. The standard system places the date "valid to" automatically.

Thanks!

The 'Valid To' date is adjusted automatically if you are using Engineering Change Management to change your documents.

For example, if you have a released document version 01 that is valid from 10/19/2006 to 12/31/9999 and you create a new version 02 and release it using ECO which is valid from 01/01/2007, it automatically adjusts the valid to date for version 01 to 12/31/2006. That means,

version 01 valid from 10/19/2006 to 12/31/2006

version 02 valid from 01/01/2007 to 12/31/9999
