Description
You use this program to archive material master records.
The system makes the necessary checks for each relevant material mastertable, based on the dataset it determined as a result of the selectioncriteria you entered.
If these checks show that the entries in question can be deleted, thesystem archives these entries and possible entries in dependent tables.
This program offers the following possibilities:

• Only archive and delete material master records that are flagged for
deletion
In this case, do not set the indicator Consider materialswithout deletion flag.

• Archive and delete all material master records for which this is
possible (regardless of whether the master records are flagged fordeletion).
In this case, set the indicator.
In the cases listed above, the system checks whether the materials canbe deleted before doing so.

• Select materials depending on the period between setting the deletion
flag and actual deletion
This is only possible in Retail systems: For additional information, seethe corresponding documentation for the indicatorTime-dependent selection

• Remove the deletion flag from materials that could not be deleted
