    Consider using archive object: <b>MM_MATNR</b>.

    Transaction: <b>SARA</b>.

    Please do not try to use the object if you are not totally sure...

    Hi,

    I would suggest you not to write your own code to delete the entries.

    BAPI_MATERIAL_DELETE, this would mark all materials selected for deletion. But still the material would exist in SAP.

    Another solution: Delete a material manually and in another session execute the transaction SM04. This would display the tables which get locked when you do the operation, Then you can write your own code to delete the material numbers from all the related tables.
