Retrieving old batch input sessions

[former_member945471]

Hi,

The batch input sessions can be seen under SM35. However, after some time, these get archived, and older sessions are not visible in SM35. How can I see these sessions again, if I need to look at these archived session.

Please advise. Answers leading to the solution will be rewarded points.

Thanks and regards,

HI..,

these session will be identified with the NAME of the session and THE QID of the session..

In the task bar u can give the session name .. to go for a particular session in a group of similarly named sessions u need to have the QID for that session....

On the main menu, you can select sessions using any or all of the following criteria:

-->session name

-->date on which the session was generated (entered into the session queue)

-->user who generated a session

-->session status

<b>Archiving should be maintained for sessions older than 3 days... The administrator cannot delete the sessions which are created in last 3 days.. </b>

Hi Arun,

Batch input logs can be either deleted or archived.

For deleting (also termed as reorganizing), program RSBDCREO is used, usually run as job SAP_REORG_BATCHINPUT. Check if your logs are being deleted, if so, I am not aware of the way to see old sessions.

For archiving, archive object BDCLOGPROD can be used. if archived, then you can read the archived logs using program RSBDC_ARCHREAD (also accessible from SARA->Read).

See some notes if it is helpful:

Hope this helps,
