Description This report archives only cleared physical inventory documents thathave been in the Warehouse Management system for a specified number ofdays. It archives records in which differences have been cleared andthe status is "completed". Using this program, it is possible to archive system inventory recordsin several warehouse numbers simultaneously. For test purposes, you can start the report without executing deletionsand without generating an archive. You merely select the report andreceive a totals log with the number of documents to be archived. In the attributes of the report, you must enter the value L_ARCH intothe authorization group. In this way, you can protect the archivingprograms from being started unintentionally. For this purpose, anauthorization with the value L_ARCH must be maintained for theauthorization object S_PROGRAM and this value must also be entered intothe respective user profiles. The authorization SAP_ALL must beremoved from the user profiles. Prerequisites We recommend that you do not start this report directly, but ratherwith the transaction /nSARA> which initializes the generalarchiving administration program. You should become particulary familiar with the transaction/nSARA> before you start an archiving program.Archiving and the deletion of system inventoryrecords from the data base have been separated into two reports inRelease 3.0 of the SAP system. The deletion report RLREOI10>can only delete data that it reads from the Archive. The archive report creates the archives and then starts the deletionprogram as a job for each archive. The size of the archive files canbe set in advance. For much of the data, the performance can beimproved significantly in this manner since archiving and deletionprograms are processed simultaneously. You set up the system as follows: Check the path and archive names that are in the platform-independenttable of archive names. The system then references a logical data paththat you can maintain as a system parameter. Create variants for the reports: For the deletion report and archiving report, use transaction/nSARA> Define the size of the archive file in MB and/or limit the maximumnumber of documents per archive file using transaction /nSARA>. If you want to save the archive optically, you maintain the data foroptical archiving with transaction /nSARA>. For information aboutoptical archiving, see the documentation that is marked as such.Optical archiving can be used as a simple add-on function.Output If you start this report without deleting and without archiving (thatis, if you only select the Test run> field), the system displaysa summary log with the number of physical inventory documents that willbe archived from each table. When you start the report to archive anddelete system inventory records using the transaction /nSARA>,the system does not display a log online. In any case, you have to maintain the spool data and can decide whetheryou want the summary of the archived and deleted documents to beprinted or stored in a spool file. To display data in the archive, use report RLRI0001>. You can find archiving management data using the transaction /nSARA >. The PATH and FILE names are of particular significance. To display an overview with job processing data, you use the joboverview transaction /nSM37>. You can start the latter fromtransaction /nSARA> |
