Archive and Delete Purchase Order/Schedule History (tdpur5201m000)

Use this session to delete, archive, or archive and delete purchase order and purchase schedule history.

To delete the order/schedule history, the order/schedule (line) cannot be present in the actual tables. In other words, the order/schedule (line) must be invoiced and logistically completed.

You can only delete history data if:

  • The data is not required for reconciliation purposes.

    Consequently, you can only delete order/schedule history data if the financial transactions of the order/schedule (line):

    • Are set to Finally Accepted in the Operations Management - Financial Reconciliation (tfgld4595m000) session.
    • Are processed in a financial period with the status Closed or Finally Closed in the Period Status (tfgld0107m000) session.
  • The data is included when the statistics are updated in the Update Statistics (tdsta2250m000) session. This is only applicable if statistics is implemented, based on the Purchase/Sales Statistics (STA) field in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.
Note
  • The archiving functionality is available in this session only if the Purchase Order Archiving Implemented check box is selected in the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session, or the Purchase Schedule Archiving Implemented check box is selected in the Purchase Schedule Parameters (tdpur0100m500) session.
  • The method to delete the order history data is based on the value of the Method of Deleting Order History Data field in the Purchase Order Parameters (tdpur0100m400) session.
  • Order history is used as the basis for statistics. Archiving and/or deleting order history limits a full update of statistics. If you archive the order history up to a certain period, it is recommended to also archive the statistics up to that period.
