The Archiving Test screen

PolicyCenter provides an Internal Tools Archiving Test screen that you can use to test archiving on a job or policy term. This screen is only available if the value of configuration parameter ArchiveEnabled is true.

Use this tool during development to see the effect of Archive Policy Terms batch processing on a selected job or policy term. From this screen, you can do the following:

Action	Description
Archive term by policy transaction number	Enter the job ID of the policy term that you want to archive. For validation: If you chose to skip validation, PolicyCenter archives the policy term based on the current configuration, including the `IPCArchviginPlugin` implementation. If you do not skip validation, PolicyCenter archives the policy term regardless of whether there are open jobs or whether the server time has reached the date set by `PolicyTerm.NextArchiveCheckDate`. Clicking Archive does not run Archive Policy Term batch processing. Instead, the tool reads the current configuration parameter values and runs the `IPCArchivingPlugin` plugin implementation.
Archive term by policy number and term	Enter the policy and term number of the policy term that you want to archive. This action behaves in a similar fashion to that of Archive term by policy transaction number.
Flush other work queues	PolicyCenter cannot archive a policy term if that policy term is associated with one or more workflows. To more effectively archive policy terms, Guidewire recommends that you run this command to clean up workflows before archiving. This command runs the following batch processing types: Purge Workflow Purge Workflow Logs Workflow
Run archiving batch process	Click Run to start the Archive Policy Term batch processing. This action is the same as running Archive Policy Term batch processing from the Server Tools > Work Queue Info screen.
