One con of the ARS 6.0 archiving is that once you turn it on, you can't add fields to the form being archived. there's a current bug logged and I've been waiting for a fix for about 2 months. I'd advise against that path.

Have you used the built in archiving feature in Remedy Help Desk 6.0? Can you tell me the pros and cons of the built in archiving? We recently bought rrr's license utility tool, would there be an additional cost for using the rrr archiving tool? Can you tell me more about the rrrchive tool?

One Active form where all active records are stored. Closed records will only stay herer for 1-3 months depending on the requirements you have. 2. One Report/History form where all closed records are immediately copied. The records stay there i.e. 13 months. 3. One Archive form where records are moved from the Report/History form after 13 months. The built in archiving has its pros and cons. I have many times used my rrrchive-tool which has the advantage of retaining the Entry-ID of the Active form. It is allways easier to manage a solution without "external" dependencies...
