Archiving Extended Tables: System Behaviour

Hi, 

 

We have a custom table which is extended basically from Task table. Lets call it as a Table A.

 

There are other 3 tables, which are extended from Table A. Lets call them as B,C and D.

 

If we open table A list, we can see data from tables B,C and D too. Clicking on the row of B from the list view (of A ), takes us to the B table with details. Similarly for C and D.

 

Now, we have set up a archive rule on Table A , this one archival rule archives the data of B, C and D as well (that's absolutely fine).

 

But, as we were able to see the data of B,C and D in list of view of A centralized way, the archived table A don't display archived records of B,C, and D. [I guess archive tables are standalone table and might not have hierarchy like original way].

 

Please tell me is the expected behaviour and if customer wants to see it in centralized way any options we have?

Hi,

Yes this is expected as when the tables are archived , There are no Extensions or references on the record.

I have not tried this but if you want to show all data of B, C & D together maybe try creating a DB view from combining the archived tables.
