Documentation

Definition

In addition to the audit area, it is necessary to specify a name to uniquely identify a policy.

Use

You can create more than on policy for the data retention of an ILM object. Every policy is therefore identified through specification of its Policy Name, among other things.

Dependencies

Example

A company decides that the following departments must be consulted before data is destroyed: Tax, product liability, and risk management. Every department has different sources for its rules, for example, to take account of country-specific differences. The tax department, for instance, applies a Germany-specific policy from the German SAP User Group (DSAG) for its German operations and a policy from ASUG for the USA. At present, no policies are in use for other countries.
