    Overview:
    AS_AFB is an SAP transaction code used to access the Archive File Browser. This tool allows users to view and manage archived files stored in the SAP system. It is a useful tool for managing large amounts of data stored in the system. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The Archive File Browser provides users with a graphical interface to view and manage archived files. It allows users to search for specific files, view file details, and delete or restore archived files. The tool also provides users with the ability to create new archives and add files to existing archives. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter the transaction code AS_AFB into the command field in the SAP system. 
    2. The Archive File Browser will open up in a new window. 
    3. Use the search bar at the top of the window to search for specific files or use the navigation tree on the left side of the window to browse through existing archives. 
    4. Select a file from the list of results or from an archive folder to view its details. 
    5. To delete or restore a file, select it and click on either the “Delete” or “Restore” button at the bottom of the window. 
    6. To create a new archive, click on the “Create Archive” button at the top of the window and enter a name for your new archive. 
    7. To add files to an existing archive, select it from the navigation tree and click on the “Add Files” button at the bottom of the window. 
    8. When you are finished, click on “Save” at the top of the window to save your changes.

    It is recommended that users familiarize themselves with all of the features available in the Archive File Browser before using it for managing large amounts of data stored in SAP systems. Additionally, users should be aware that deleted files cannot be recovered once they have been removed from an archive folder, so caution should be taken when deleting files from an archive folder.
