SPL record deletion and archival in GTS

Hi,
We are planning to delete and load new SPL master data. When we try to use the archiving object SPL_MD , it does not archive and delete all SPL masters. It only archives if the SPL master is marked for deletion. I know we can manually flag a sanction party master record for deleion using transaction /SAPSLL/SPL_MD02. But is there a transaction to flag them for deletion in Mass? Or is there a way to direcly archive and delete them without flagging for deletion?
Regards
Satya

Hi,
Here is the answer I was given when asking the same question: Guess that will help you.
If I understand the question correctly, you will have to archive the old SPL Master Data using the SPL_MD archiving object. This archiving object will allow you to create an archive of your current SPL Master Data (e.g. flat file) and then allow you to delete all data from the /SAPSLL/TSPL, /SAPSLL/TSPLA and /SAPSLL/TSPLN tables -- these tables are part of the SPL_MD archiving object. Once you have archived and deleted the prior SPL Master Data, you ought to be able to load the new SPL Master Data without any problems.
This method of course has pitfalls. If you're upgrading your SPL Master Data from the non-extended XML data to the extended XML data of the SPL entities, your audit trails will lose some details (e.g. which SPL entity matched on a specific business partner). Another pitfall is the amount of time it takes to rescreen all of the business partners against the new SPL Master Data. You may also encounter a large amount of blocked business partners as a result. My advice is to definitely test in a non-production environment.
Cheers

  • Process Order Deletion and Archiving process

    Hi all,
    I just want to ask what is the proper process in deleting and archiving process orders and what are the possible impacts on the other modules?
    Thanks!

    Using SARA, Archiving object is PR_ORDER or t-code COAC.  Follow the step pre-process, write archive file, and delete from database.
    I don't recall any prerequisite for archiving process orders.   However, costing guys/girls often yelled to keep process orders for a very long while so you might want to check with their requirement (Note that archiving is more business-oriented than you think).
    Before you can do so, you must follow the steps of process order life cycle (from create, release, tech.comp., close, deletion flag, deletion indicator, accordingly).
    For deletion flag, and deletion indicator, you can set via COAC t-code.  There is a set up for period lapse between deletion flag to deletion indicator to archive in order type configuration (residence time 1, 2).  Process order, for example,  must reside in database for 1 month after deletion flag and another 1 month after deletion indicator before you can archive them out if you set residence time 1,2 to 1.
    Hope it helps.

  • Delete and Archive iCal entries

    Hi,
    With other agenda/ToDo programs I have used, things get full and sluggish after a certain amount of entries accumulate. Typically, there is an option to delete and archive more distant entries from the past, along with ToDo items that have been checked off. These can be opened and searched separately, and I have typically archived ~ yearly.
    Is there any built-in option to do this with iCal? I know there is an option to backup the database, but I thought this was mostly in case of corruption or loss of the file. If there is no built-in option, is this necessary, or will iCal operate without slowing or problems no matter how many entries I have? I prefer to have the deleted entries saved and able to be searched, to help track down distant past appointments and tasks.
    As a last resort, are there any separate programs that allow this? I have been unable to find anything thus far.
    Thanks in advance for any answers or advice on this matter.

  • Records Retention and Archiving in RH7

    I am wondering if anyone in Forumland has a solution to
    easily identify records in RH that need to be deleted during
    records management/retention. For example, I have x-amount of
    documents that have been archived for seven years, and the company
    opts to delete after that amount of time. Is there a way to easily
    identify these documents for deletion?

    Are you referring to versions of your RH project? If so, Only
    you can identify these and delete them. If not, can you be a little
    clearer of what you want to achieve.

  • Delete and Archiving jobs.

    Hi,
    I have a question for the Archiving and delete jobs.

    This job in turn schedules jobs 1 Write job.
    ARV_BC_XMB_WRP20070917012553

    Deletion of messages and message table:
    SAP_BC_XMB_DELETE_<client>
    Please let me know what messages this job deletes.
    In Simple , I want to understand the difference between these two jobs.

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Thnaks for the information. It not only deletes from the SXMSPMAST , it also deletes from SXMSCLUR table. I can observe the there is  a exaxt decrease in number of these records which tallys with the output of the report "xxx no of messages deleted".
    But when i see in SXMB_MONI i can see all the messages. So what is it deleting exactly ....
    The messages disappear in SXMB_MONI only when the archive/delete job runs in server.
    Thanks,

  • X2 Multiple message deleting and archiving

    I recently bought Nokia X2 which disappoints me a lot.
    There are 500 messages in my INBOX and i want to delete 400 messages but there is no mark option to select multiple messages.
    I want to save another 100 messages in ARCHIVE folder. Each time I have to go through the options INBOX /OPTIONS /ARCHIVE which is very irritating. Moreover there is no folder creation in messages ARCHIVE folder, which is big disappointment.
    Battery charging to taking tooooo much time and draining in very very short time in normal use(1.30-2h talk time+30min music+20-30 messages my battery goes to single point).
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    menu...select messaging...select more.....choose delete msg's..
    then select by msg or by folder........choose the folder or msg you want to delete
    charging time on this model is slower than other models
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • Delete and Archive

    On Verizon iPhone 4: When emails are opened, five small icons appear at the bottom of the screen. For some emails, that icon is Trash; for some, it is Archive. (1) How come? (2) If Archive is clicked, the email goes somewhere. Where? (3) To the left of the Archive icon is a "File it" icon. When it is clicked, the phone wants to know where to put it. If I put it in a Trash, that should get rid of it. No?    Thanks

  • Size Scale Change - Procedure and Archive Validation

    There is a business need to change size scale. A style can originally be created with size scale of S,M,L, but then changed to 2,4,6,8.
    Currently, I have been archiving the original articles and reload the articles with the new size scale. Questions:
    1. Is there a simple way to change the internal characteristics than to archive?
    2. If archiving is the correct way, please confirm if the following steps are the correct way to archive:
    a. If PO exist, deletion the PO. Do I need to archive PO?
    b. If info record exist, delete info record.
    c. WSP6 to discontinue the listing.
    d. WRF_DIS_SEL to discontinue the sites, vendor, and client of the generic and variants.
    e. SE38 - run programs to delete and archive.
    3. How do I archive info record? How do I archive purchasing and sales pricing created through MEK1 and VK11 respectively?
    Appreciate any help given.
    Thank you.

    In IS-R ECC 6.0, there's a program that will allow you to re-assign the variant-creating characteristic values for varaints such that you could change 2,4,6 to S,M,L. and keep the same variant numbers. I've used it a little, and will edit this post on Monday (US Eastern time) with the program name. I don't know if you can do it en masse, and do not know the downstream impacts that you may encounter,(BI Analytics, BI MAP, additionals with vendors, third-party interfaces, etc.) but it seems to work pretty well. More to follow.
    UPDATE: Okay, try program RWRFMATCHARVAL. This does not appear to have an en masse capability, beyond the generic article level. However, if you have a good ABAPer, you could probably leverage the code to do what you want to do and adjust the characteristic values. Let me know what you think of this.

  • Deletion or archiving of old prod. orders

    Dear All,
    plz suggest me which way i can archive my old prod orders from SAP system & how can i get it back?Whats settings required for this? thank u.
    Jagdish

    Hi,
    Once archived the Production Orders are only for Information Purpose.
    You can not do any thing on these orders..
    For detailed information on Production order Deletion and Archiving
    1. First Execute the program : PPARCHP1 with Deletion Flag Activated and the selection should be all your Prod. Orders
    or you cn have a selection criteria to do that.
    After this some of the orders will not get the DLFL Flag, there can be numbr of reasons for that.
    If you encounter any problem with this DLFL flag, we will discuss it separately.
    2. Execute the same program PPARCHP1 with Dletion Indicator activated.
    Now you got the DLFL and DLT both for your Production Orders.
    As said earlier Residence Time 1 & Residence Time 2 will play a major role on this.
    If both are maintained as 1 & 1 then the Prod. Orders should reside in the system with DLFL for 1month.
    after that only you can put the DLT. and also after putting DLT you need to wait for 1month for Deletion or achiving.
    3. Now goto PPARCHA1 (Archiving) and execute the Program with your same selection criteria.
    4. Now use the T. Code CO78 or T. code SARA (with PP_Order as object Name) for deletion of Orders.
    Execute the programs in the Foreground, so that you will come to know waht was the problem if ny.
    You can excute th background program run for Deletion.
    Hope this helps..
    Revert for further discussion and for further clarifications..

  • Count total number of record of table with deletion from archiving object

    Does anyone know is there any SAP standard program to count the total number of record of the table with deletion from Archiving Object and display in repprt?

    Not sure of the question. Are you looking to get the sql "select count(*) from table" from using the TopLink expression framework or are you getting that SQL already and want something else?
    If you are looking just to get the count from a table/class, you can use a ReportQuery:
    ReportQuery rquery = new ReportQuery(ClassToQueryOn.class);
    rquery.addCount(); //equivalent to count(*);
    session.executeQuery(rquery);
    You can use a report query to return data instead of objects, and use selection criteria just like a normal read query.

  • Manual Record Deletion vs. Archiving

    Hi,
    We have a good number of records that are no use to us and we'd like to remove them from our system.  We have been going back and forth on whether to archive them or delete them manually.  We are told to archive them all would take 3 months.  Does anyone know the downsides of manually deleting the records or anything other pros and cons of the two methods?
    Thanks,
    ~ Chris

    Archiving in MDM is totally different from Archiving records in other ECC system. But still you can create an archive file using a Mask. In this Mask you can put all the records which you want to delete from your repository. This the archive file will contain only those records which you wanted to delete. You can save this archive file for future references. Later on you can delete those unwanted records from your original repository.
    The above is one way of achieving it, but by deleting you will also loose the history of those records from your repository. So, i would suggest you to create an additional Look up field. This look up field will contain values like "Active", "Deleted" and will act as flag to identify whether record is deleted or not. Later on you can assign "Deleted" value to this field for records which you want to delete.
    This way you will be able to identify where record is active or deleted. In actual it will not delete the record and will preserve your master data history...

  • How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail"     and "Archives"?  To my horror, I've emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes  (and why do I need to enter this question three times?"

    How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? 
    To my horror, I emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes .
    All mail also disappeared from my iPad, I suppose because they are "synched"
    (Also, no offense, but why do I need to enter this question multiple times?)
    Thanks for any thoughts.

    I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
    I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
    I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

  • Receiver JDBC: Error while doing the Deleting and Inserting new records

    Hi All,
              I am doing Idoc to JDBC scenario. In this I am collecting & bundling different type of Idocs and then sending to the JDBC receiver. My requirement is to delete the existing records in the database and insert the new records. I have configures as mentioned in the link
    Re: Combining DELETE and INSERT statements in JDBC receiver
    In the above link its shows for single mapping. In my scenario I am using multi mapping for collecting idocs in BPM. If I configured for normal mapping then it is working fine(Deleting existing records and Inserting new record). Whenever I am using multi mapping then I am getting following error in the receiver JDBC communication channel u201CError while parsing or executing XML-SQL document: Error processing request in sax parser: No 'action' attribute found in XML document (attribute "action" missing or wrong XML structure)u201D . Can you please tell me what might be the problem.
    Thanks & Regards,
    T.Purushotham

    Hi !
    check this out:
    JDBC - No 'action' attribute found in XML document - error
    JDBC receiver adapter: No 'action' attribute found in XML document
    It appears that the inbound payload (the one that is going from XI to the JDBC adapter) does not have the requiered tag to specify which SQL action to execute in the receiver system. Maybe the multimapping is not creating the desired output message format.

  • Why is the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons repleased with the "Archive" button (Only for one of the accounts)?

    Hello,
    I must have changed a setting, so that the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons above the mail pane have disappeared, and an "Archive" button has appeared instead. This is true only for my mail through Gmail (IMAP), but when i open a mail from my other account (POP), i still see the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advance
    Ayse

    Try this:
    Select an email that does not show all the correct buttons in the header information section above the actual message.
    right click on the blank area just above 'Other Actions', you should get a popup saying 'Customise'.
    click on 'Customise'
    a new window opens.
    you can drag items onto that header area, but I would suggest you click on 'Restore Default Set' button and then clickon 'Done' button.
