Archive-system-independent archive-type objects

摘要

This disclosure provides various embodiments for archiving a business object. At least one particular business object is identified for archiving. The particular business object has associated data including type data corresponding to a business object type of the at least one particular business object, structured business data, and unstructured attachment data. At least one archive-type object is created corresponding to the particular business object by enriching the unstructured attachment data with type-specific metadata including data identifying at least one attribute of the business object type. The archive-type object is archive-system-independent. The at least one archive-type object is exported to at least one archiving system for storage in at least one memory device of the archiving system.

1. A computer-implemented method of archiving business objects, the method comprising:
identifying at least one first business object for archiving, the at least one first business object having associated data including:
type data corresponding to a first business object type of the at least one first business object,first structured business data, andfirst unstructured attachment data comprising an electronic version of a printed document; creating at least one first searchable archive-type object corresponding to the at least one first business object by enriching the first unstructured attachment data with first type-specific metadata including data identifying at least one attribute of the first business object type and including the enriched first unstructured attachment data in the at least one first archive-type object, the at least one first searchable archive-type object searchable based on the enrichment to the first unstructured attachment data; exporting the at least one first archive-type object that includes the enriched first unstructured attachment data to at least one archiving system for storage in at least one memory device of the archiving system, wherein the at least one first archive-type object is archive-system-independent; identifying at least one second business object for archiving, the at least one second business object having associated data including:
type data corresponding to a second business object type of the at least one second business object,second structured business data, andsecond unstructured attachment data comprising an electronic version of another printed document; creating at least one second archive-type object corresponding to the at least one second business object by enriching the second unstructured attachment data with second type-specific metadata including data identifying at least one attribute of the second business object type and including the enriched second unstructured attachment data in the at least one second archive-type object; and exporting the at least one second archive-type object that includes the enriched second unstructured attachment data to at least one archiving system.
