Dear Nur,

When archiving process and you want to delete the material , then you need to run the deletion process , use Tcode SARA--> Object MM_MATNR.If you already run archiving process for the material, check the management status for you archiving session, you should able to see whether it complete or incomplete.

hi w1n,

do we have to run the deletion process everytime we want to delete the material after archiving it?

Dear Nur,

Yes, if you want the material master record to be deleted from database table, you need to run the deletion process.

The complete cycle of Archiving is > write> store >delete or write>delete-->store.

hi w1n,

i went to SARA and choose management,then i notice that there's material with status incomplete archiving. What can i do to delete this material so that the status will be complete archiving?

dear w1n,

after i run the deletion process in SARA, i check on MM72 whether the status is still incomplete or complete.then i found that there's already 'complete deleted' but when double click to see the details description,it says that the material has been deleted completely but not stored. So how can i store the material and solve this issue?do you have any idea?

Dear Nur,

You can go to SARA, enter the object> storageSyst>store files> archive selection> choose the file to store.

If there's no store document available , it seems like your deletion process is not success.

Please check your customizing. what comes first-->delete or store?

also check whether the job is start automatically for store or delete process.

Also ask your basis team about the Content Repository in customizing
