Gail,

Before you start deleting data, check with your users on the business side.
Retention requirements for EDI documents should be the same as for paper
documents. If they save PO copies for 10 years, you should save yours for 10
years. The same applies to shipping docs, invoices, cash receipts, etc.

That doesn't mean you have to keep the EDI docs online. Check with your
system administrator and work out an archiving strategy that will allow you
to keep the important archived documents offline. Now all you have to do is
to determine how long you need to keep the docs online. I have found that
one year covers nearly all demands by auditors and business units. Your
mileage may vary.

Oh, and if I were you, I would start campaigning to have an EDI expert who
knows your environment and business on retainer for those times when you
need help. Also, see if you can schedule yourself for TLE training. In
Hawaii. (Or Atlanta, if you prefer.)

Good luck.

Subject: [EDI-L] Need assistance with Trusted Link Purges

Hi,

I have been asked to 'develop a purge program for EDI' because we are
replicating user spaces. I am looking for input about what data to save and
how to go about setting this up, and the technical aspects of using or
replicating user spaces. Although I am a programmer, I have not used user
spaces and do not know the implications of replicating them.

I am not very experienced with EDI and do not know if there are any legal
requirements about keeping data. Our EDI coordinator quit a few weeks ago
and because I was the backup I think it is assumed I somehow absorbed the
knowledge and experience when he left. I have since learned he will not be
replaced, but there was not a lot of communication about the overall set up,
and all I did was handle minor issues that arose during the daily processes.


Can anyone share what they are doing with Trusted Link or point me to
documentation that discusses pros and cons about what to save or purge?

Thanks

Gail Nelsen
