This sounds like you would need to keep all journals online for as far back as you might ever want to look at historical data. It sounds like a very useful function for us as Higher Education always has government reporting requirements that are based on a specific date. And data changes all the time so trying to reproduce a report that was based on data from a year or two ago on a specific date is very problematic.
