Data archiving in SAP is more than just a backup. With the Savento Tower Archive Manager, you maintain oversight, automate processes, and document everything in a legally compliant manner.
Why Archiving in SAP is Important
In S/4HANA, data volumes are continuously growing. Historical or rarely used data can slow performance and increase costs, but they are often legally relevant, such as accounting documents. Efficient archiving keeps your productive database lean while all data remains accessible.
Challenges in Archiving
Manual processes create potential for errors and high effort. Complete documentation for auditors is often missing, and distributed archives increase complexity.
Savento Tower as a Solution
Savento Tower centralizes and automates SAP data archiving. Every archiving action is documented, ensuring compliance with auditor requirements. You always maintain an overview of archive jobs, storage locations, and data flows. Thanks to automation, even less experienced employees can work reliably. Integration into S/4HANA allows you to manage archiving directly from the system.
Key Benefits at a Glance
- Automation: No more manual interventions required.
- Transparency: Every action is traceable.
- Audit-Readiness: Verifiability and documentation are always ensured.
- Efficiency: Less effort, fewer errors.
- Integration: Seamless connection to S/4HANA processes.
A Practical Example
Do you want to archive business transactions monthly? With Savento Tower, you define rules, e.g., based on time criteria or data ranges, and the tool handles the rest automatically. Documentation, reports, and logs are generated in the background.
Tips for Implementation
- Start with a pilot area (e.g., FI, CO) and test the rules.
- Define clear responsibilities for archiving tasks.
- Check data protection and compliance requirements.
- Train your team – thanks to automation, the training effort is minimal.
