Archiving Master Recipes (PP-PI-MD)

Definition

Archiving object PI_PLAN for archiving master recipes in the component Production Planning and Production Control for Process Industry (PP-PI). See also: The Archiving Object

Note Note

This archiving object has been revised within the framework of a project for standardizing and optimizing the data archiving process. You can use the standardized archiving object by activating the business function Data Archiving: Standardization of Archiving Objects (technical name DA_ARCHOBJ_STANDARD_1 ). For more information, see Data Archiving: Standardization of Archiving Objects or the business function documentation in the Switch Framework (transaction SFW5).

End of the note.

Note Note

You can use the archiving object within the framework of Information Lifecycle Management . A prerequisite for this is that you have activated the associated business functions. The system then additionally shows the ILM Actions frame. With these actions, you can carry out an archiving process in which the retention periods stored in the Information Retention Manager are evaluated, for example. Furthermore, you can create snapshots (copies) of data or destroy data that satisfies the applicable prerequisites. For more information, see the ILM Actions in Write Program section of ILM Enhancements for Data Archiving .

End of the note.
