Venkat,

Archived files are normally stored in External storage devises. Generally data which is old and not very frequently acessed is archived, to improve the afficiency of the SAP R/3 system.

Yes you can retreive archived files. There are standard programs to retrieve archived files.

For eg: RM06ER30 to retrieve archided Purchase Documents etc.

a Basis consultant plays the significan role to manage the storage decises such as providing ACESS to the archived data in external storage devises.

Hope this explanation of mine helps you.

1.Choose storage system.

The store/Retrieve Archive file menu box appears.

2. Choose Retrieve Files.

3. using archive selection, select the file you want and specify when you want to commence that same.

4. Execute.
