In order to control the heavy inflow of the objects in the same objectstore, which in turns impact the performance of the system, the objects from the current objectstore would be archived to a new objectstore called archive objectstore. Business Needs: Archival of Custom Object/BP8 Objects using FileNet Enterprise Manager 3.0 was not usable when the objects were imported to another objectstore. Upon importing, the object ID s were not maintained the same as the new objectstore. The search operations to retrieve the objects for archiving were performed manually. There was no automation provided. The search operation to retrieve & export the objects took a long time (around 30-40 minutes) even to retrieve 2000 objects. MITS developed a swing based archival tools with following features: Objects can be archived or exported to the new object store with the same object ID s using our Archival tool. Administrator can execute it either manually or can schedule it in the windows scheduler. Administrator can configure the archival parameters using the UI to filter the objects to be archived. To archive or export the objects it takes around 20 minutes for 4000 objects. The tool can be configured on P8 3.0 and above environments and it can be configured and installed on any other client locations without any code modifications Archival configuration settings Import / Export of Search Template using Script DBS Bank Singapore (MITS implementation for DBS I2R Workflows Application) The I2R Workflows Application is designed to move the DBS back office processing from a manual, paperbased operation to an image and workflow-driven environment providing significantly enhanced processing capability and efficiency with a lower cost base.
