[rahulknair]

Hi Expert,

I tried to archive FI documents with a residence time of 730 days using ILM, the documents are archiving which are created before 730 days but the documents which are cleared on 2019 ( Created on 2017) also archived. Is there any one face the same issue please help us to solve, I don't want to archive the documents which are cleared before 730 days. In the Application customization I am maintain 730 days for both account life and document life. Thanks in advance for your help

Regards

Hello Rahul,

Could you try Siva's solution here:

"I have got the solution for this problem. For FI_DOCUMNT archiving object, there are two transactions OBR7 and OBR8, that are used to set the retension periods one is for document life and one is account life. I have set Document life as 1 1/2 years and the account life as 6 months. So the SAP system will check whether the FI accounting document has completed its retension period of 548 days and then check whether the clearing document has completed its retension period of 182 days. If these two checks are successful, then the document will be archived, otherwise not."

Sounds like account life should be 730 days, and perhaps document life longer.

Hello Tammy,

Thank you for the reply.

I set both account life and document life 730 days, so it should not consider a document which is changed before 730 days. But for me it is not working.
