vf02 - print invoice - print and archive - no error when archive not available

[andreas_streuffert2]

Hi,

for invoice printing we use storage mode "print and archive". sometimes archiveserver is not available. When I use print function in VF02 I still get message vf303 "Output was successfully issued" although invoice has not been archived. Is there a way to get an error message when archiving was not successful?

Tcode OAM1 is not an option as we don't want to give that to enduser.

The process for archiving a document, once initiated by SMART form processing, is run as a background task. This mean any such errors which may occur during the archiving process cannot be passed back to the foreground task and thus captured in the SMART form error log and then ultimately captured in the output log.

As a work around, to determine if an issue occurring during the background task used to archive a document in "ArchiveLink" you can to use transaction SM58 and search for error logs generated during execution of TRFC Function = ARCHIV_CREATE_TABLE_MULT and TRFC Destination = SAP_AL_OUT to detect if document not successfully archived in "ArchiveLink".
