    Hello - We are long overdue for a purge/archive of Lawson data.  We have open PO lines from years ago that lack for a better way to put it, we just want to go away.  No resources available for research/paint screens.  Does anyone have a retention policy in place - similar to what we all have for paper records?  Are there 3rd party solutions available (at a cost of course) for assistance & maintenance?  Is anyone using PO300 routinely for purging?  We only use PO300 for Vendor Agreements at this time.

    Any advice is appreciated.  Thanks.

      I have "go away now" POs as well - I've never found a way to do it in bulk other than mass PO99 uploads. We have data from 1997- present. It is in committee to authorize a cutoff date and then everything must go.

      We just had an RFP - NTT Data and TeamAbsolute (aka Knowledge Solutions) have 3rd party apps/jobs that will streamline/automate the process.

        I used to work for The Revere Group (now NTT) so I'm a little biased... but I've implemented that solution quite a few times. I'm not familiar with Absolute's solution but I have no problem recommending the one from NTT to my current clients even after departing the company.
