Archive Object

An archive object definition identifies the tables that contain the data to be archived and the history tables that are to be updated for each table.

It is important to understand the base table and nonbase table relationship. PeopleTools documentation explains in detail the concept and relationship of base to nonbase tables.

See PeopleTools: Data Management, "Managing Archive Objects," Understanding the Base Table and Non-base Tables
