RE: MAPICS - Order Shipment History

[Teresa Biby <TBiby@xxxxxxx>]

I had the same problem when trying to archive.  It was because when we put
the history there (DB to XA) we did not bring over the AR history.  When
archiving Mapics looks to this file first to delete the invoice and if it
can't find it--stops the archive.  I got a list from Mapics of all the files
that I would have to delete from manually.  We upgraded our box and since
disk space is no longer an issue, we still have lots of history.

Subject: MAPICS - Order Shipment History

I'm trying to archive some orders from 1997.  Most of them were saved and
deleted but about 1500 of them refuse to go.   I've checked and doubled
checked the order dates and completion dates and they fit into the range I'm
trying to archive.

Has anyone run into this and figured out what are the essential fields to
check. These orders came over from MAPICS DB when we converted to XA.   Not
all of the fields in key files like MBBWCPP (historical customer order file)
have data in them.  I suspect that if certain fields do not have valid data
in them then that order will not archive.
