What is Archiving and how can I archive documents from my Lotus Notes database?
With Notes, you can archive your email, cleaning out your email database without losing any of the important information stored there. When you archive, Notes opens your archive database (or creates a new archive database if you haven’t archived yet), then selects documents that match the criteria you have specified and copies (archives) them to the archive database. Notes then deletes the archived documents from the original database. As part of the Notes default there are two archive rules set on user accounts. The first rule allows you to choose which documents you want to archive however they must be more than one day old. The second rule forces archiving on any document that is more than one year old. These rules can be viewed in your Tools folder under the Archive tab.
