Procedure for System Administrators

This message can appear in the following cases:
The read program cannot be used for the archiving object &V1&, but has
been entered as the read program for this archiving object &V1&.
This means that the read program has been entered in at least one of
the tables ARCH_RPRG or ARCH_REPOW. Check (for example through
transaction SE16) whether one of these tables contains an entry that
combines the archiving object &V1& and the read program that was used.
If the entry was delivered as part of an SAP program, contact the SAP
Hotline. If not, delete the entry in the following manner:
Table ARCH_REPOW
Delete the entry using transaction SM30.
Table ARCH_RPRG
You should delete an entry from table ARCH_RPRG only if you yourself
created the entry. To delete the entry use transaction AOBJ.
The read program can be used for the archiving object &V1&, but does
not work within the Archive Adminstration program.
If this is the case, it is likely that a program error occurred. If you
are using an SAP program, contact the SAP Hotline. If you are using
your own program, it is likely that one of the function modules
AS_DATASOURCE_INIT or AS_DATASOURCE_SELECT is not being called up
correctly. The archiving object &V1& should exist in the parameter
IT_OBJECTS.
