  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code VKA1 is used to create, change, and display archiving conditions. It is used to define the criteria for archiving documents in the system. 
  
  Functionality: 
  VKA1 allows users to define the criteria for archiving documents in the system. This includes setting up the conditions for which documents should be archived, as well as defining the archiving objects and their associated fields. The transaction code also allows users to view existing archiving conditions and make changes as needed. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use:

  5. Select “Display” to view existing archiving conditions and make changes as needed. 
  6. Select “Change” to make changes to an existing condition and select “Save” when finished.
