Summary :
The SAP Note addresses a specific issue where document-flow records in the VBFA table are not deleted after billing documents are archived using the general billing interface or GN_INVOICE_CREATE. The problem arises because the system only archives subsequent document-flow records along with the predecessor and sets the preceding document status to 'Completed'. It suggests using the ARCHVBME report to delete unnecessary document-flow records from the VBFA table after archiving. It also includes steps for importing the report, creating a required index for the VBFA table, and configuring transaction settings for archiving and executing the report.
