Description

Organizations managing high volumes of project transactions need to retain historical cost data without allowing years of completed transactions to continually increase the volume of active operational data. This capability enables organizations to archive processed project staging table cost actuals for long-term retention while preserving access to historical records when needed.

Administrators can archive eligible project cost actuals for selected legal entities and date ranges using the Archive with Dataverse long-term retention workspace. The archive process moves eligible cost actuals and related transaction records to long-term storage, while providing visibility into job status and progress and continued access to archived records after the process completes.

This capability helps organizations manage growing project transaction volumes while retaining the historical cost information required for financial history, audit, and business needs. It is available for Dynamics 365 Project Operations deployments that work with other Dynamics 365 ERP applications and requires Archive with Dataverse long-term retention.
