Variant Settings for Restoring (PA-PA) 
Use
Report RPUAUD00 enables you to display archived data, which means you only need to restore archived data in exceptional circumstances.
However, if you must restore data, you should endeavor to restore a complete archiving run. If this is not possible because of organizational factors, for example, or because there is insufficient space on the database, you can still restore individual archiving objects instead. An archiving object consists of all documents that belong to a personnel number or applicant number in a specific period. As a result, objects are selected by selecting a set of personnel numbers or applicant numbers.

If you restore data partially, data access is considerably slower when data is read in the archive.
Activities
If you select the Test run field, the restore program starts as a test run. This prevents data from being written to the database.
If you only want to write some of the data back to the database, you can choose individual or several personnel numbers. You can make a distinction between applicant numbers and personnel numbers.
The system writes the data that was not restored to a new archive. You cannot read or restore the old archive any longer. In this way, the system ensures data consistency.
You must re-archive restored data if you do not want to keep it on the database.
The Detailed log option enables you to create a detailed list of processed documents. However, you should only use this option if errors have already occurred that you need to pinpoint because it triggers the creation of an extremely detailed log.
