The SAP Archive Link for SAP Archiving Interface is an implementation of SAP Archive Link (protocol 0045) which provides an interface between SAP R/3 or SAP S/4HANA On-Premise edition and the SAP Archive Link Agent.
The SAP Archive Link for SAP Archiving Interface provides a mechanism to store SAP contents such as scanned invoices, print lists, outgoing documents or SAP Data archive files. These documents/data are stored on Commvault ObjectStore repository and accessible to SAP R/3 or SAP S/4HANA on demand. The SAP Archive Link Agent would essentially handle all of SAP document storage needs using our optimized storage solution.
