Delete Docment from database (Part 1)

Hello

Is it possible delete DMS document from database ?

Yes Sometime we need delete DMS document from SAP database.(for example data migration is wrong and etc.)

We have two solution

Solution 1:

Step 1 : Find document you want delete and set deletion flag ( it is possible mass set deletion flag in cv04n if you set in customizing)

step 2 : Go to t.code : se38 and run program MCDOKDEL

Step 3 : select document Type

Number 1 : If set X run program in test mode and document not deleted

Set this indicator if you want to execute a test run before deleting any

documents.

Note:

You should execute a test run first of all since the documents are not

archived before they are deleted.

As a result you receive a list that is divided into two parts:

o Part 1: Undeleted documents

This is a list of the documents that cannot be deleted due to their

usage.

o Part 2: Deleted documents

Number 2 : This indicator controls whether the usage should be checked for the

documents to be deleted.

Step 4 : Run

All document in select document type deleted.

  Hi Pooja Gunjal,
  
  No program or standard FM available to delete the documents.
