Function documentationReloading Request Administration Data Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You can reload archived administration data for requests into the BI administration and log tables.

Recommendation Recommendation

In order to avoid unnecessary reloads from the archive, we recommend that you only archive administration data for requests when it is more than three months old and will probably not be edited again. For example, you definitely do not need to compress or activate this data again.

End of the recommendation.

Integration

The following processes and functions perform a write access to a request and require, for editing purposes, that you reload the request administration data from the archive.

  • Editing data from the PSA through InfoPackages (3.x) or through the process type Read PSA and Update Data Target

  • Changing the QM status in the extraction monitor

  • Restructuring from the PSA

  • Rolling up requests

  • Compressing requests

  • Activating Requests

If data is to be updated from an InfoProvider, the system creates a new request. The system does not use the original load request for the update. A new request is also created when you further process data from the PSA using a data transfer process. Therefore, the archive does not have to be read when request data for which administration data has already been archived is further processed or updated; request administration data is not reloaded.

Features

The following functions are available:

  • In archive administration (transaction SARA), you can reload an entire archiving run. For more information, see Reloading Data.

  • In the Data Warehousing Workbench, in archive administration for the request (transaction RSREQARCH), you can reload administration data for the individual requests in an archiving run. For more information, see Archive Administration for Request Administration Data.

    Note Note

    Note that the statistics in the archive administration of transaction SARA only display the number of reloaded requests, if all the requests of an archiving run have been reloaded.

    End of the note.

  • When you attempt write access to a request that has archived administration data (for example, if you need to edit a request of this type), the administration data is reloaded (after the user has confirmed a confirmation prompt). If the request is accessed in the background, the system automatically reloads the administration data. For more information, see Editing Requests with Archived Administration Data.
