Archive data

Hi,
I am new to the Oracle database. And I need to archive data that is older than 60 days and delete the data from the tables. The tables have refertential integrity constraints. The archive data need to be resored back to the tables when necessary. I have read the previous messages posted by others and got to know that there are at least three ways to do it.
Firstly, I can use Oracle Partitioning. But this is only available in Enterprise edition. The version I will be using is Standard edition one. So I can't use the partitioning method.
Secondly, I can use Oracle Export utility with query option to export the data and delete the data from the tables after export.
Thirdly, I can create the same set of tables (historical tables) and write scripts to copy the data from the current tables to the historical tables, and delete the data in the current tables.
In my opinion, I think that the second method is move like an "archiving" as the Export will export the data into a file which can be stored in some sorts of storage devices.
The third method simply sotres the historical data in the database. I still need to back up those historical tables in case the database crashes.
If you know any other methods or any improvements to the above methods, please let me know. Thanks.

you've got all options covered.
the devil is in the details ..... knowing the schema well enough to be able to
write the correct queries for export or to copy to archive tables.
Note : Those archive tables can be moved to another database which you
can make available to users if they need to query it for "historical" data,
provided all parent-child / master-detail data relationships are maintained.

Archiving data in ods

Hello out there
In our company we ara going to archive transactional data for the first time
I am going to create several ods:es . In those i am going to transfer data before archiving in r3.
Now my question. I will set a flag somewhere and if this is set i will be impossible to delete the data in the ods via rsa1 transaction
I hope this is possible but dont know how to do.
/7 Stisse

Hi dear and welcome on board!
Is your doubt related to some possible authorization settings in order to avoid potential (undesired) deletions of this data ?
I think you can move these ODSs in a dedicated Infoarea and then avoid to assign access into it to anyone...
Otherwise, you can archive data in BW too !
Let me know your specific requirements (do you have to do some reporting on this archived data ?)...
Bye,
Roberto

URGENT!!!! - Reading Archived Data from a Report.

Hi,
The data, prior to 15 months, of some tables (BSEG, BSAK),
used in the report YGF11347 has been archived.
Previously this report YGF11347 was run for vendor payment information for any time frame
through FBL1N. So any vendor line items from 2004, 2005, 2006 and current year,
all data elements were available to be extracted and displayed on the report.
Recently the Check Amount is missing when executing the report for payments made prior to
04/01/2006. This is because of archiving the data prior to 15 months.
My requirement is tht i need to display this archived data also in the report "YGF11347".
Can anyone please help me on this issue.

Akrati

Changing the default to location of Archiver data

Hi,
Is there any way that we can change the default location of the Archiver data. By default is goes to archives folder, i want it to goto some other folder.
Similarly when u take up the backup of site. i want it also to be stored in some other folder.
is it possible.???

For archiver see My Oracle Support Note
How can I move the archive directory? (Doc ID 449054.1)
Not sure what you mean by a back up. There is no built in Disaster recovery tool for UCM. Standard system back ups (file system and DB) for restore should be used.

In PL-SQL archive data from a table to a file

I am currently developing a vb app where I need to archive data from a table to a file. I was hoping to do this with a stored procedure. I will also need to be able to retrieve the data from the file for future use if necessary. What file types are available? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

What about exporting in an oracle binary format? The export files cannot be modifiable. Is there a way to use the export and import utility in PL/SQL?

Unable to access Archived data with an ABAP Query

I have an ABAP Query that uses Logical Database KDF (Vendor) for reporting.
KDF is Archive Enabled and I can access archived document via SAP standard programs that used the KDF Logical Database.
the query appears accessing the data but nothing shows on the report.
Has anyone successfully written and ABAP query and included access to the Archived data?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi Gena,
I'm facing exactly the same problem as you...
Since this post is an old one, I imagine that you may not remember, but I have to try...
Have you solved it? If yes, could you please tell me how?
I've tried to use CL_ABAP_GZIP and CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM and I'm getting the same error 30 at the IctDecompressStream function.
Tks in advance,
Flavio.

Re: Retriving archived data

Hi,
Two tables related to FI(BSEG, BKPF) have been archived, so currently there is no data in the database table . Now I have to reload the archived data again into the database tables for further processing.
Can you please advise, if this is a correct method?
If yes ? How do we do it ?
The SAP version used is 30F.
Thanks in advance.
BR// SSRmary

Hi Srmary,
For fetching archieved data you need to use following function modules in same sequence:
1) AS_API_READ
2) ARCHIVE_READ_OBJECT
3) ARCHIVE_GET_NEXT_RECORD
4) ARCHIVE_CLOSE_FILE
You can insert data in database table once you fetch the successfully by a simple program.
Reward points if helpful answer.

How to find Archive data In SAP

Hi experts ,
How to find Archive data in SAP throught the following tcodes FTWL & AS_afb.
Thnx
Venky

Hello,
Transaction FTWL is for the DART files (not actually archived data) that are stored in your archive server. In order to run a query, or browse the DART file, you would need to "Import from archive" from within FTWL and then browse the file.
I am not sure what you mean by AS_afb. Please provide more information.

How to get the functionality of FM 'RV_PRICE_PRINT_ITEM' for archived data

Hi All,
I am trying to print archived billing data using archiving object SD_VBRK. I am able to print all the related information except the pricing.
Apart from reading all the tables archived under the archiving object SD_VBRK, I also need to use the function module 'RV_PRICE_PRINT_ITEM' to print the pricing related information on the SAP form.
However this function module reads the data from standard tables KONV etc., which are archived. Due to this I can not use this function module for printing the pricing related information for archived billing document.
However I need to incorporate similar functionality for the archived data.
Can anyone help me in replacing the FM 'RV_PRICE_PRINT_ITEM' for the archived data.
Thanks and Regards,
Santhoshi

Please use this FM to read information from the Archived mode '/PBS/RV_PRICE_PRINT_ITEM'
Thanks,
Ranjith.

Archived data retrieval

Hello experts,
We archive CO/PA, GL, and SL objects regularly and each object has its own info structure configured. I need to find out if we make additions or changes to the coding block, will there be any impact to retrieve the archived data? Any comments and consideration you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Symei Chen

not really. SARI/E/J is your best shot. But then: what would you need it for? the ACC*-tables contain total identic duplicates of MKPF and MSEG so you could always go and look there ...
