Archiving Technical POS Objects
Use
The POS interface uses the objects grouped together here to process the data transferred from the store POS systems.
Features
Document flow
The SAP system uses the document flow to determine which application documents it creates during POS inbound processing. The document flow is generated for information purposes only and it can be displayed using the POS monitor.
You cannot archive the document flow. If necessary, you can delete the document flow using program RSWWWIDE. Set the work item category to C and delete the Status and Identification fields.
You should delete all document flow entries for inbound data if they are over three months old.
Program RSWWWIDE deletes the 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 for IDocs
Table WPLST contains all error messages that occurred 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 had status 53. If, however, you have archived IDocs that have a different status, you must delete the relevant error messages from table WPLST. Use program RWPUDLST to do this directly.
Status information for IDocs
Table WPTST contains information about IDocs that the system could not process successfully. Furthermore, it contains information about the last IDoc segments that were processed. This information is very important for data integration and consistency in the POS inbound. The system requires this information to be able to start the POS inbound processing at the right place should the processing be terminated.
Do not delete IDoc data from this table under any circumstances if it has a status other than 53. This would result in the system being unable to process POS inbound correctly.
You cannot archive these table entries. If necessary, you can delete entries using program RWPUDTST.
Work items
SAP Workflow work items are generated when you are processing master data, store goods receipts, and store purchase orders in POS inbound processing.
You should only archive work items that have the status 'COMPLETED' (status 53).
You should archive all work items that are more than one week old.
You can use the following IDocs to generate work items:
WP_PLU01 |
POS Interface: Article Master Upload and Download |
WP_EAN01 |
POS Interface: EAN/UPC Assignment Uploads and Downloads |
WPUWBW |
POS Interface: Upload Goods Movements |
Object name: Work item
