Build a complete custom archive scenario from scratch by using only custom tables

Posted on by CU23071552-1
I am trying to archive the custom table data with dataverse. Following the microsoft doc - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/sysadmin/archive-custom-build-scenario.  Question - It is mentioned to create BI extension class in BusinessIntelligence  model to add LTR configuration. However, I am not able to create any class in BusinessIntelligence  model. Can we create a class in SYS model? I am thinking to add this in custom model itself. Is there anything else that can be done to achieve this? this step is also mentioned as an important step.
 
 
 
Also, the code in that class mentions the method which does not exists -

    Hi,

    Regarding the BusinessIntelligence model, you don't need to create a new class directly in that model. Since BusinessIntelligence is a Microsoft sealed model, adding new objects to it isn't supported.

    Instead, I would recommend:

    1. Adding BusinessIntelligence as a model reference to your custom model (using Update Model Parameters).
    2. Create your [ExtensionOf(...)] class in your custom model and extend the required class from the BusinessIntelligence model.

    Referencing the BusinessIntelligence model should be sufficient—you don't need write access to the model itself.

    Regarding the missing method, I also noticed that the documentation references addSourceLinkTableForLongTermRetention, but this method is not available in my environment.

    As an alternative, I would recommend checking whether addSourceTableForLongTermRetention(ArchiveServiceSourceTableConfiguration) is available in your version. Based on its signature, it appears to be the appropriate method for configuring source tables for long-term retention and may be the intended replacement. If it is available, it would be worth trying this approach.

    If this solution works for you, please mark it as Verified so others can easily identify the solution.

    Thanks
