normally archiving is done for sales order or fi documents etc...Archiving is not done for custom tables. Archiving is process which is like dumping documents into 1 area from where using archiving tables data can be fetched.

Hello Surya,

To archive a custom table, check out archive object EXAMPLE which will show you the necessary function modules that you will need to use. Go to transaction AOBJ to get to view archive object and create your own custom archive object. You will then need to create an archive write, and delete program. You can also create a custom archive analyze program, or create a custom field catalog and archive information structure through SARI to view the data.
