Hi Sherry,

Customer Master can never be Archived in system, you can apply a deletion flag for the Customer in perticular sales area by XD06.

Dear Syarifah,

Please check out the following links, i'm sure they ll help you out against the desired requirement. By the way why you wanna archive? Why don't you only block the customers? Can you please share the business requirement. I would suggest better to block the customers then archiving the data and in future if u do so you wont be able to get the data in DB tables and you need separate reporting for that. Rgds.

Dear Ammarah,


Thanks for your reply. We need to delete this because the two companies are no longer with us. Therefore i have deleted the client via XD99 by company code. Even after we archive we can still view the customer right?

Dear Syarifah,

For archiving setting the deletion flag is most important things which you can do In XD99, Please check out this link, it's very useful.

After setting the deletion flag you will be able to view the customer still in XD02 and in KNA1 table field LOEVM will be 'X' if the customer is marked for deletion. Please revert in case you need more assistance. Rgds.

Dear,

With XD99, you can do this in one go. Select a row below and execute then create your Variant if needed and execute again. Click on Display ---- Records. On the left most top corner you will see a multicolored icon just click on that and select 'Central Deletion Flag' option now click on the 6th icon on top which is 'Carry out a Mass Change' after selecting a column of 'Central Deletion Flag'and there you go. Also, if you wanna do it one by one in case of few customers you can do it directly by XD06. Follow the same procedure and lemme know if it goes good at your end. Rgds.

Hi,

I doubt whether there is standard T.Code for Mass deletion of customer. You have to develop Z program to perform it or use LSMW for the deletion of customer if you have the list of customers to be deleted.
