Hi Chitta,
For generic benefits from archiving refer help link
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/8f/f3b142304cc511e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Importantly , is there any statistics on typical %age of storage space saved when we archive a standard SAP FICO system, like 20 % , 30 % ?
Assuming the current growth of an FICO system is 50 GB per month , if archive is switched on , what shoulkd be the growth rate ?
There is no fixed % of savings which can be shown with Archiving. It varies from customer to customer.
Based on the existing storage capacity and table growth rate, certains suggestions could be made on space savings with archiving.
Analysis of number of records per year which needs to be archived should be made to have some understanding on how much GB of data shall get archived.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Deepak Kori
