The function Start Autoarchive Work Orders is designed to allow high-volume customers to set older Work Orders to an Archived status.
See Start Archive Work Orders for details on this manual archiving function.
This function is designed to be run as a scheduled event. The following registry options must be in effect. Contact your support representative for assistance in setting this up.
Id: sys-start-Sautoarchivewo
Setting Key: DaysOld Setting Value: #days
If this was set to 180 days, the work order would have to have a date closed on it 180 days or earlier than today.
Setting Key: EscalationStatuses Setting Value: billed,cancelled
This is the recommended setting. Archiving ‘completed’ work orders with this function is NOT recommended as they may have unbilled costs.
