Display archived purchase orders in Lists (e.g. ME2L)

Hi everybody,
Last week we upgraded our system to SP13 (ECC 6.0). Since then we have problems with our archived purchase orders.
Usually all purchase orders (independent from where they are saved (archive or database)) are displayed in standard reports like the ME2L. Since the upgrade we cannot access the archived POs when we start the ME2L.
When I use SARA (e.g.: RM06ER30) to read the archive it works. When I start the ME24N and pic a archived purchase order it works fine too.
I have two questions now:
1.) I'm not 100% sure if the old behavior was standard or if some modification has been carried out in our system some time ago. Can anybody tell me if archived POs are displayed in MM-lists like the ME2L in SAP-standard?
2.) Does anybody has a solution how I can fix that?
Thanks upfront and kind regards
Alex

Archiving Purchase Orders.

Hi Friends,
I am trying to Archive Purchase order using archiving object mm_ekko.
I get the following errors.
1. Could not delete some subitems
2. Delivery costs have not been balanced
3. GR qty is smaller than ordered qty minus underdelivery tolerance
4. GR qty not the same as delivered quantity
5. GR qty not the same as GI qty
6. Invoiced quantity is smaller than ordered quantity
7. Item is blocked
8. Posting date of delivery costs within retention period
I just want to ingnore / correct them and move ahead.
Any solutions ??
Thanks in Advance
Kanica

Hi Kanica,
If you think to implement same solution in production system then problems are,
1. Payment - Payment posting to vendor will happen and updated to FI accounting documents aganist to that vendor
2. You may land up with audit related issues.
If this seems to be ok with your client then you can proceed with that.
Otherwise you can think of the option of setting deletion flag for the line item and archive it. Once you do this nothing will be changed apart from deletion flag settings for this line item.
Hope this will help for your issue.
-Thanks,

Archiving purchase orders of a specific order-type

hello,
does anyone have a simple-doc or plan for archiving purchase orders. archiving for dummy's as I have never done this?
points to be taken into consideration:
- order of a specific type (ZRL0)
- order must be older then 10 days
thanks,

Hi,
In order to archive PO's , there are a number of considerations that must be taken into account.
The archiving program SARA -> MM_EKKO , Write , does a large number of checks before archiving can be done.
The first step is to go to SARA -> MM_EKKO , customizing. In here , you can specifiy what kind of documents you want to archive and specify the retention period (document life) for each type of document.
For example :
Go to C MM-PUR : Reorganization PO
You will find several type of PO Doc types
DB     Dummy purchase order           Standard
NB     Standard PO           Standard
NB     Standard PO     K     Consignment
NB     Standard PO     L     Subcontracting
NB     Standard PO     S     Third-party
NB     Standard PO     D     Service
UB     Stock transport ord.     U     Stock transfer
Suppose you want to archive Standard PO's , go into the customizing option and then set the residence time 1 and residence time 2.
Res time 1 is the number of days which must elapse after which a deletion indicator can be set for the document. The elapsed days are calculated from the last change date of the document record in EKKO table.
Res time 2 is the number of days which must elapse after which a document with a deletion indicator can be actually deleted out of the EKKO table.
Once the customizing is finished , then you should run the SARA Preprocessing job (which sets the deletion indicators for the selected set of documents) , then the write job (which will write the DLT status documents to an archive file) and then the delete step (which will remove documents from the EKKO and other related Purchasing tables. TO get a trailer of what gets archived and deleted , run the archive write job in "Test" Mode , rather than "Production" mode.
Hope this helps.

Reload archived Purchasing orders or reference archived PO's in MIRO

Hi Colleagues
Is there a way to
Reference an archived Purchase order in a MIRO posting?
or alternatively reload archived purchase orders? I hjave reviewed SAP note 456129 and this states that RM06ER30 can be amended by SAP as remote consulting
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Steve

I would not do this, as it can cause inconsitencies.
And I would only consider it:
when I archived much more than it should be because of wrong selection
AND if this has happened right now and no new POs where created.
I would not even think about such option just because of an unexpected late invoice.
You can post this invoice thru FI transaction FB60

Retrieve the Archived Purchase order

Hello All,
Please help me with transaction to retrieve the archived Purchase order.

Kalyani.

In transaction AOBJ, object MM_EKKO has no entry for a retrieval program.
In help.sap.com the document for MM_EKKO states:
There is no provision for the retrieval of previously archived data.

Archive Purchase Order in SRM 5.0@ extended classic senario

Dear SRM Guru,
I use SRM 5.0 in extended classic senario, how can i archive purchase order with limit order using standard SAP?
Thanks.
Regards,
Kim

Hi Kim,
your question is a quite open one. So I try to answer with different flavours - hope there a right one for you.
In case you'd like to archive over system boundaries, i.e. since to ECC PO is a copy of a leading PO in SRM, you might expect that you somehow can archive both at once. This is not happening - i.e. you have to archive both separately.
When you look up notes 726509 SRM archiving: Archiving of R/3 documents with SRM, 723685 SRM: History after the archiving of R/3 documents you might figure out more.
There was an issue in archiving that the workitems were not archived with reference to the SRM document - but this is resolved via note as well. Search for related notes with 'Archiving' + 'SRM' in the service portal.
When you want to figure out more regarding the archiving dependencies you can look up the archiving trx. SARA resp. the archiving programs in SE38: BBP_DP_ARCH_* (CHECK, DELETE, WRITE, SET_STATUS).

Richard

How to extract TEXT for archived Purchase Orders ?

Hi Friends,
Can any one tell me how to extract TEXT for archived Purchase Orders ?
I have used READ_TEXT but that is not fetching texts for archived PO's. Whenever I am trying to fetch data from STXH against archived PO, no value is coming and resulting SY_SUBRC <> 0.
Any demo code will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance..
Sivaji

Hi,
You can see that table STXH is linked to archiving object MM_EKKO (you can see it in tcode DB15).
My suggest is that you must get the data. See the demo object BC_SBOOK in tcode AOBJ. You can see the report to reload data. The object is get the data in an internal table. So for report SBOOKR you can see this function module:
*   get data records from the data container
*   SBOOK
    CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_GET_TABLE'
      EXPORTING
        archive_handle        = lv_handle
        record_structure      = 'SBOOK'
        all_records_of_object = 'X'
      TABLES
        table                 = lt_sbook_tmp
      EXCEPTIONS
        end_of_object         = 0.         "not entries of this type
*   check lt_sbook_tmp entries against selections. Delete not
*   requested entries
    LOOP AT lt_sbook_tmp ASSIGNING <ls_sbook>
                         WHERE carrid IN s_carrid
                           AND connid IN s_connid
                           AND fldate IN s_fldate.
      APPEND <ls_sbook> TO lt_sbook.
    ENDLOOP.
    REFRESH lt_sbook_tmp.
The idea is that you get the same data that you handle in READ_TEXT (because you don't have the data in database) and recovery the text.
I hope this helps you

Get archived purchase order

hi all
i want to look purchase order from year 2008, but there data are archieve, how can i look backP
THX abap_begin.

Hey,
Check for the Archive Documentation. SAP ADK.
To get the Purchase order, there are set of FM's given by SAP. I don't remember the exact name but you can check with the following: ASHdoc* for ARCHIVEEKKO* (not able to recollect the exact names)
Use SARE and SARJ transaction to go to the archiving tables. Provide your Archiving object name, click display, click on technical details and you can get archiving table names as well. Never use table name directly but use FM's given by SAP.

Accounting document number display in purchase order history tab

Is it possible to display the accounting document number in the purchase order history tab? Currently it is displaying material document number for Good receipts and LIV (logistic invoice verification) document number for Invoice receipts against material document number colmn. We can get to the accounting document number by drilling into the LIV document number. We are looking for a way to display the accounting document number in the display screen of purchase order history tab instead of drilling down.
Is there an option to display accounting document number of the MIRO posting in ME23N , purchase order history tab?
Truly appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanks for the response.

Display of Purchase Order in release

Hello all,
My client has Five levels of approval in their Purchase Orders. Is there a way i can view a list of Purchase Orders that are yet to be fully approved. Meaning a list of Purchase orders that might have undergone two levels of approval, remaining three levels.
Thanks in advance.

Use the fields EKKO - FRGKE & EKKO - FRGZU to fulfil your requirement.
The number of X you find in EKKO-FRGZU will let you how many levels the said PO is approved.
EKKO - FRGKE will let you know whether the PO is still blocked for further approval or it is already released. Normally the B is used for identifying blocked status and R is used for released status in this field. It may be different in your system, check your configuration on release indicators
