Tables

With SD_COND, data from various tables is archived and deleted. To find out how to display the table names, see the application documentation for data archiving under  Data Archiving in the ABAP Application System Data Archiving with Archive Development Kit (ADK) Archive Administration Tables and Archiving Objects . In addition, table entries are archived together with the condition data by means of the following archiving classes:

Customer-Specific Tables

You can extend the archiving scope of SD_COND without modification with the aid of Business Add-In (BAdI) ARC_SD_COND_WRITE, which is integrated into the write program.

Programs

The following programs are delivered with SD_COND:

Write Program

The write program supports the ADK interruption concept, that is, you can interrupt the write phase and continue at a later point. For more information, see the application documentation for data archiving under  Data Archiving in the ABAP Application System Data Archiving with Archive Development Kit (ADK) Archive Administration Interrupting and Continuing Archiving Sessions .

A compact log with information about the data processed is written in both the write and delete runs. Alternatively, you can enable the output of a detailed log containing additional information. For more information, see  Archive Administration Logs .

Logging Non-Archivable Data

During condition archiving, the detailed log provides a list of records that cannot be archived according to the archivability check. The reason for this is also shown.

Reasons why a condition record cannot be archived:

Customer-Specific Archivability Checks

You can extend the archivability check without modification with the aid of BAdI ARC_SD_COND_CHECK, which is integrated into the write program. For more information about implementing BAdIs in archiving programs, see SAP Note 673030.

Deletion Program

The standard variants SAP&PROD (production mode) and SAP&TEST (test mode) are delivered for the delete program.

ILM-Based Information for the Archiving Object

You can use this archiving object with the SD_COND ILM object as part of SAP Information Lifecycle Management. In order to do so, you must activate the associated business function Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) (transaction SFW5). The system then also displays the ILM Actions frame. You can use these actions to archive documents with the retention periods defined in the Information Retention Manager. You can also make snapshots (copies) of data or delete data that fulfills the prerequisites.

The following fields for SD_COND are defined in the ILM policy and are visible when processing ILM policies (transaction IRMPOL):
