Archiving Warehouse Orders (SCM-EWM-WOP) 

Definition

You use the archiving object WME_WO to archive and delete warehouse orders.

Use

You can archive warehouse orders that Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) saved a certain number of days ago. You can also simultaneously archive warehouse orders for multiple warehouse numbers.

For test purposes, you can display a list of all the warehouse orders to be archived and deleted before archiving them.

Structure

Tables

EWM uses the archiving object WME_WO to archive data from the following tables:

Table	Description
/SCWM/WHO	Warehouse Order

Programs

The following programs are delivered for the archiving object WME_WO:

Program	Function
WME_ARCH_WO_WRITE	Write
WME_ARCH_WO_DELETE	Delete
WME_ARCH_WO_READ	Read

Variant Settings for Writing

In the variant of the write program, specify the warehouse number and the warehouse order as the selection criteria for the warehouse order. In the processing options, specify whether EWM is to start the program in test mode or production mode.

For more information, see Variant Maintenance for Archiving Jobs.

You can use the following formula to calculate the necessary space required to archive warehouse orders:

length of warehouse order data record x number of warehouse orders.

You can determine the data record length in the ABAP Dictionary.

The runtime of the write program depends on the number of warehouse orders to be archived and on the general system performance.

Dependencies

Before you can archive warehouse orders using the archiving object WME_WO, you must have archived the relevant warehouse tasks using the archiving object WME_TO.

Reorganization

You can use the program /SCWM/R_REORG_HU_WO_PRINT to delete persistent print data records and Post Processing Framework data records for handling units and warehouse orders that you no longer need in EWM.
