Reloading Request Administration Data 

Use

You can reload archived administration data for requests into the BI administration and log tables.

In order to avoid unnecessary reloads from the archive, we recommend only archiving administration data for requests if more than three months old and likely not to be processed again. In other words, you are sure that you definitely do not need to compress or activate this data again.

Integration

The following processes and functions perform a write access to a request. For editing purposes, you have to reload the request administration data from the archive:

●      Editing data from the PSA through InfoPackages (3.x) or through the process type Read PSA and Update Data Target

●      Changing the QM status in the extraction monitor

●      Restructuring from the PSA

●      Activating requests

If data is to be updated from an InfoProvider, the system creates a new request. The system does not use the original load request for the update. A new request is also created when you process data from the PSA using a data transfer process. The archive therefore does not have to be read even when request data for which administration data has already been archived is further processed or updated; request administration data is not reloaded.

Features

●      In archive administration (transaction SARA), you can reload an entire archiving session. More information: Reloading Archives.

●      In archive administration for requests in Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSREQARCH), you can also reload administration data for the individual requests of an archiving session. More information: Archive Administration for Request Administration Data.

●      If you attempt a write access to a request that has archived administration data (if you need to edit a request of this type for example) the administration data is reloaded once confirmed by the user. If the request is accessed in the background, the system automatically reloads the administration data. More information: Editing Requests with Archived Administration Data.
