Fix Broken GOS/ArchiveLink Links — No ABAP Required.

We use pyrfc to validate SRGBTBREL integrity during S/4HANA migrations. By comparing GOS pointers to ArchiveLink records in TBL1024 chunks, we identify and repair broken links that cause go-live delays.

from pyrfc import Connection

def validate_srgbtbrel_links(doc_keys):
    conn = Connection(dest='SAP_PROD')
    broken_links = []
    
    for doc_key in doc_keys:
        # Check GOS pointer validity
        gos_result = conn.call('GOS_API_GETDETAIL', OBJKEY=doc_key)
        
        # Check ArchiveLink presence
        archive_result = conn.call('ARCHIVOBJECT_EXISTENCE', 
                                  OBJECT_TYPE='HRP1000',
                                  OBJECT_ID=doc_key)
        
        if not gos_result['SUCCESS'] or not archive_result['EXISTS']:
            broken_links.append(doc_key)
    
    return broken_links
