This feature allows customers to implement and run custom archive scenarios that natively leverage the Archive Framework’s orchestration and data management capabilities.
Custom scenarios integrate with existing archive job creation, scheduling, and execution flows, ensuring consistency with first-party archive behavior. Validation enforces framework standards for configuration, execution, and retention policies, while providing flexibility to model customer-specific data domains. As a result, customers gain a supported, extensible path to archive non-standard data sets using the same enterprise-grade architecture trusted for core Dynamics 365 archival scenarios.
Business Value:
This capability empowers customers to address unique regulatory, operational, and business-specific data retention needs without waiting for scenarios delivered by Microsoft. By using the Archive Framework, customers can build their own custom archive solutions that cover custom tables in Dynamics 365. This approach can reduce custom engineering effort, lower operational risk, and accelerate compliance with local or industry-specific requirements.
