Hi vijay,

Data that is no longer required in the database for applications should therefore be removed from the database. However, it is often not possible simply to delete the data, as read access to the data is still frequently required. The data must therefore be stored outside the database on external storage media so that it can later be read again.

So Data archiving means the consistent removal of data objects from database tables of the SAP system database, where all table entries that characterize a data object are written to an archive file outside the database. Business consistency is ensured by SAP archiving programs that store all relevant table entries together on the basis of archiving object

steps to do archiving:

1. Creating the archive file

2. Storing the archive file

3. Deleting the data

Hi,

Archive: a place to save a history of all of your instant messages, alerts, conferences, and text messages, data files also.

OR

An archive is a collection of files that have been packaged together for backup, to transport to some other location, for saving away from the server so that more hard disk storage can be made available, or for some other purpose or for backup.

In the SAP we can use as he said sara and we can use BRTOOLS-> BRArchive.

Note: Points always encourage me to reply !!

Through transtion SARA we can do archiving.

Basic purpose of archiving is to remove unused data or which is to be used in future

Hence we moved that data in archive files.
