Sequence of Objects in Archiving (SAP Library

Sequence of Objects in Archiving

For each project, you need to determine the relevant archiving objects individually. Which archiving objects are relevant, will depend on how your business processes run and how you portray these processes in SAP Retail. The growth of data in individual tables can vary considerably from production system to production system.

Once you have determined the relevant archiving objects, you need to establish the order of the objects for your project. There is no set method for doing this. You must always agree the order you decide on with the specialist departments concerned.

The following table shows some sample archiving objects together with the recommended order for archiving:

Group	Object A of the Group	Object B of the Group	Object C of the Group	Object D of the Group	Recommended Order Within the Group	Recommended Order of the Groups
1	MM_MATBEL	MM_INVBEL	MM_REBEL	MM_HDEL
2	MM_EKKO	MM_EBAN			A, B	2 before 3, 2 before 9
3	RV_LIKP	SD_VBRK	SD_VBAK	SD_COND	A, B, C, D
4	RL_TA
5	W_SOR	W_PROMO	W_KALK	W_MARKDOWN	A, B, C
6	MM_ACCTIT					6 before 7, 6 before 10
7	FI_DOCUMNT					7 before 8
8	PCA_OBJECT					8 before 9
9	CO_ITEM	CO_COSTCTR	CO_ML_BEL	CO_ML_IDX	A, B
10	MM_MATNR

Notes:

Suggested order within the group (objects affected are underlined).

In the case of groups in the table containing objects which are underlined, we recommend that you archive the objects in the order they are shown. In group 9, for example, CO_ITEM should, if possible, be archived before CO_COSTCTR, whereas the order of CO_ML_BEL and CO_ML_IDX is interchangeable.

Recommended Order of the Groups

An entry in this column means that all the objects in a group should be archived before the objects of another group. Therefore group 2 should, if possible, be archived before group 9.
