Function documentationArchiving Broker Reports

 

Broker reports that were posted successfully can be archived and deleted automatically by the system. Archiving is possible after the runtime of the broker report has expired.

You can reload archived broker reports.

Integration

An archive index in the AS (Archive Information System) is updated for the archived broker reports. To do this, you must activate the SAP_ISCD_BRCO01 archive information structure.

Note for Integration with SAP NetWeaver Information Lifecycle Management

The current archiving object is integrated with SAP NetWeaver ILM.

If you have configured SAP NetWeaver ILM and this archiving object accordingly, the write program that generates the archive files displays the ILM Actions group box. In this group box, you can choose one of the following radio buttons:

  • Archiving

  • Snapshot

  • Data Destruction

For more information, see the documentation for these radio buttons in the system and in the application help for SAP NetWeaver ILM.
