SAP NetWeaver Information Lifecycle Management (Enhanced) Technical Data SAP ERP 6.0 EhP 6 SP 01 / NetWeaver 7.0 EhP 03 SPS 01 Product Version BC-ILM Area Country Relevance Valid for all countries User Interface and Standard ILM Content  ILM Cockpits and Menu Structure for ILM Application Scenarios (Enhanced) The menu structure of the ILM cockpit was reworked to correspond to the current process steps of each ILM application scenario. The menu structures are filled according to the relevant roles. However, the authorizations for the cockpit functions are assigned by special roles. The menu structures of the ILM Cockpit are available in the Easy Access Menu of the application system as well as in NetWeaver Business Client (NWBC). More information: Assigning Authorizations for SAP NetWeaver ILM Functions User Interface for Customizing of ILM Rules (Changed) To make the techniques of ILM rules more transparent, new terms have been introduced. o ILM object instead of object type Customizing of ILM rules for a data object (instance of an archiving object) is defined in an ILM Object (previously: object type). Policy categories: Retention rules and residence rules The residence rules techniques are already available, however, standard implementation is not planned until future deliveries.

User Interface for the Definition of ILM Policies and ILM Rules (Changed) The terms "retention duration" and "residence duration" have been introduced. Reason: An ILM rule contains time specifications without reference to a timeline. It defines the determination of the start time and the duration (such as the retention duration). Only the result of rule evaluation has a timeline. The system determines the start date for an ILM object based on the rule. Then, it determines the end date of the period based on the duration (such as the retention period). More information: Editing ILM Policies,...

You can now execute some of these transfer steps...

Improved Checksums Function (Enhanced) You use checksums to compare the scope of the data from the system to be decommissioned with the scope of the data from the ILM store of the RW system. You do this to ensure that the complete data from the legacy system is available in the ILM store. For checksum generation, you can also use data from the legacy system to which you are connected via RFC. The user interface for the definition of checksum generation has also been reworked.

New Service for Controlling ILM Stores in AS ABAP  Storage and Retention Service – SRS (New) The Storage and Retention Service (SRS) — a new service for controlling ILM stores — is available in the application system (AS ABAP). You can use this ABAP-based service instead of the XML Data Archiving Service (XML DAS). This means you can use SAP NetWeaver ILM without a separate AS Java (on which XML DAS runs).
