Use
In this IMG activity, you carry out a preparation run for archiving accrual objects. You must carry out a preparation run before running an archiving session. In a preparation run, the system performs the following functions:
- It selects the accrual objects that you have defined on the selection screen
- In accordance with pre-defined rules, it assigns all selected accrual objects the status To Be Archived or In Processing
Afterwards, when you run the archiving session, the system will archive all archiving objects with the status To Be Archived.
Note
In future accrual runs, accrual objects with the status To Be Archived will no longer be incliuded, even if you have not yet actually archived them. This means that no more accrual postings will be made for these accrual objects.
However, accrual objects with the status To Be Archived are still displayed in Reporting, as accrual postings may have been made for these objects in the past.
Requirements
Standard settings
The rules used to determine the archiving status for the individual accrual objects are provided by SAP. This means that the following conditions must be met for an accrual object to have the status 'To Be Archived':
- The life of the accrual object ends before today's date.
- No periodic accrual postings have been made for at least 200 days.
You can change the status assigned to an archiving object using the Business Add-In (BAdI) ACE_ARCHIVING_PREP. To do this, choose IMG activity Correct Archiving Status in Accrual Engine Customizing. You can also use this BAdI to define your own rules for status assignment.
Activities
Before starting a preparation run for archiving, run it in test mode.
- Enter the company codes in which you want to archive the accrual objects.
- Enter the key date for your preparation run.
- Set the Display Results List flag.
- Set the Test Run flag.
- Choose Execute.
Check the results list for your test run. You have the following options:
- If you are happy with the status assigned to the individual archiving objects, execute the preparation run in update mode. Do not set the Test run flag.
- If you want to change any of the status assignments, use the BAdI ACE_ARCHIVING_PREP. To do this, choose the IMG activity Correct Archiving Status in Accrual Engine Customizing.
Note
The archiving preparation run can be repeated as many times as you like, even in update mode.
