Dear Experts,

We have some add-on Z tables, there is a table and its size is very huge.

So we want to archive for the table.

Can we use Archive Development Kit ?

the steps are as below:

1. Creating Archiving Objects then maintenance (AOBJ)

2 . Develop archiving programs:

- Develop write program (required)

- Develop delete program (required)

- Develop read program (optional)

- Develop reload program (optional)

Or could you give me more good idea?

Thanks and Best Regard,

Colin.

Hello,

Using the Archive Development Kit is a good idea but only if you really want to use all functionalities of data archiving (creation of archiving sessions, recovering data, ...).

Pay attention that using the Archive Development Kit takes preparation and also custom made development.

When you only want to delete (no need of archiving) data from your own Z-tables you can also create some ABAP reports to clean up the data (delete).

As long as you delete data from tables of your own customer namespace (Z-tables) SAP will make no problem.

Of course you need to make sure that the data consistency remains once you start deleting in your own tables.

HI ,

For the Creation Of Custom Archive Objects, You need to follow the Below Steps.

1. Program Creation. (Write,Delete,Read,Reload,Preprocessing).

2. Creation Of Object Definition in AOBJ by creating the needed entries in Structure Definition.

3. Enter the Program Names.

4. Also if you want to have some dependency with any other Standard Object , You can create an entry for that in AOBJ.

5. Reload Program is same as READ , We need to add an Additional Insert command to Push Back the Records into the Table.

Hope this link also might help you.

Hi Colin,

I have created two Custom Objects. For One object I gave FI as the Application area as it contained FI related tables.

For another Object , I gave BC , as it has an independent table not related with MM /SD /FI.

For the FI Custom Object , I have used the same Applic. Component given in FI_DOCUMNT object and for the another Object I left it as blank.

Swarna.
