Archiving Technical POS Objects 

Use

The objects listed here are used by the POS interface to control processing of the data transferred from the POS systems in the stores.

Features

Document Flow

The SAP system uses document flow to record which application documents are generated at POS inbound processing. Document flow is generated for information purposes only and it can be displayed using the POS monitor.

You cannot archive document flow. If necessary, you can delete document flow using program RSWWWIDE. Set the workitem category to C and delete the Status and Identification fields.

You should delete all document flow entries for inbound data if they have been in your system for over three months.

Program RSWWWIDE deletes document flow for all IDoc types, not only for POS IDocs. If you delete the document flow, you can no longer check which application documents the system generated during POS inbound processing.

Error Messages Generated for IDocs

Table WPLST contains all error messages that were generated when data was being transferred to POS Inbound. You can view the entries in this table in the system using the POS monitor.

You cannot archive these table entries. The system deletes the table entries automatically, if the relevant error has been rectified.

You should only archive IDocs that have status 53. If, however, you have archived IDocs that have a different status, you must delete the relevant error messages from table WPLST. You use program RWPUDLST to do this.

Status Information Generated for IDocs

Table WPTST contains information about IDocs that the system could not process successfully. Table WPTST also contains information about the last IDoc segment processed. This information is very important for data integrity and consistency of POS inbound processing. The system requires this information so that if POS inbound processing is interrupted, it can continue where it left off.

Do not under any circumstances delete IDoc data from this table if it has a status other than 53. This would result in the system being unable to process the remaining inbound data correctly.

You cannot archive these table entries. If necessary, you can delete entries using program RWPUDTST.

Workitems

SAP Workflow workitems are generated when you are processing master data, store goods receipts, and store orders at POS inbound processing.

You should only archive workitems that have the status 'COMPLETED' (status 53).

You should archive all workitems that are older than a week.

You can use the following IDocs to generate workitems:

WP_PLU01

POS Interface: Article Master Upload and Download

WP_EAN01

POS Interface: EAN/UPC Assignment Upload and Download

WPUWBW

POS Interface: Goods Movement Upload

Object name: Workitem
