Validating records for archived business classes

Archived business classes have a validate archive counts option, which you should only run when there is no active archiving in progress and no pending data to be moved to the archive. You can validate all checksum values or choose a specific checksum value.

  1. In the Administration Console, select Database and click the Archive Totals tab.
  2. You can create a new business class or open an existing one. Right-click a business class, then select Validate Archive Counts.
  3. Select Validate All to validate all checksum values, or specify a checksum in Check Sum Name. Optionally, select Send Notification to receive a notification when the validation completes. This is different from any notification specified in Schedule. Opening the notification takes you to the validation result.
  4. Click Submit and OK.
    The result is found on the Validation Results tab of the archived business class. It shows the total count and checksum values, or specific values if selected. Discrepancies are highlighted in red. A maximum of 5 results are kept; when a validation is run, only the most recent 5 are retained, and the rest are deleted.
