My company is in the process of converting to SAP and as the Records 
Retention Manager, I would like to be able to provide the IT teams with best 
practices for retaining the legacy records to meet regulatory and business 
requirements. 

Some methods we have are to: 
1. Back up to tapes by retention period e.g. General Ledger records = 
Permanent on its own tape.
2. Convert legacy records to text files and save to CDs.
3. Do a snapshot of the application.
4. Convert all data to SAP.

Since the electronic records contained in the systems have different retention 
dates, does anyone have experience with the best way to retain and then 
dispose the electronic data?

Is there anyone using SAP who knows about its retention and disposition 
capabilities?

Any guidance is most appreciated.
