RE: Archiving

We are using BPCS V6.0.04. What you can do is do a monthly back-up of your data
lib (suggested is before month-end close), then run the file purging programs -
the xxx900 series programs eg. PUR900, ACP900, etc... This purge programs will
delete all completed transactions in the subsystems and reduce the transaction
file sizes. Then you can regularly run a file re-org (RGZPFM)  for all the
primary transaction files (eg. ITH, HPH/HPO, APH/APL, AMH/AML, etc) If your are
using CEA, i suggest you run a regular file reorg (say weekly) of the ZQWSP and
ZQWRP files  - these are work files where BPCS put records for use by CEA
programs. But for some reason BPCS does not delete the records after use by a
CEA session. These files gets bigger and bigger.

Hope this helps.
