1. Every archiving object in the SAP system is connected 1:1 with the
content of a single database table.
Answer: False
Different business objects could belong to each archiving object in the
SAP system. The data for these business objects could, in turn, be
distributed across multiple database tables.
2. The names of the archive files are determined at runtime. How are
these names generally specified for a specific archiving object?
Answer: C
The name of the archive files is determined at runtime by settings in
the archiving object-specific Customizing (assignment of a logical file
name for the specific archiving object) and in the Basis Customizing
(assignment of a physical file name to a logical file name in the
Basis Customizing and the assignment of a logical file name).
No specifications about the name of the archive file are made in
cross-object Customizing. The exact time of the archiving run can
appear in the name of the archiving file using a parameter, but the
name is generally not determined by this alone.
3. After data has been archived from the SAP system and deleted it
from the SAP system’s database, it is no longer possible to access this
data with read accesses.
Answer: False
It is still possible to access data to read it after it has been stored in
the archive and deleted from the SAP system’s database. Depending
on the archiving object concerned, there may be a number of views
between which the user can choose (such as a technical view and a
business view).
