A content repository (= logical storage areas on the hard disk, in which data can be stored in a structured manner) is required to store and archive data. Data archived using this interface technology meets all the various legal requirements required in the course of digital data archiving.

ArchiveLink creates a link between archive documents and the associated documents in SAP. Among other things, the following documents can be converted into a previously defined filing system using ArchiveLink: incoming and outgoing documents, print lists, archive data.

Kgs has developed tia® Migration specifically for the simple and controlled execution of archive migrations in the SAP environment. With this software, it is possible to seamlessly monitor whether the legal framework is being met when changing archives and to prove that all objects have been transferred correctly. In addition, the tia® Content Server also fully supports ArchiveLink interfaces.
