After archiving the materials or by determining the gaps between the UPCs, the unused UPCs which are from archived materials are stored in a table called /AFS/EANTBREC.

To recycle above shown UPC number we need to transfer from the table /AFS/EANTBREC to another table /AFS/EANREC using a program /AFS/RECYCLE_EAN. Then these UPC numbers are available for recycling soon after completion of given number range.

We must flag the indicator No interval rolling in Customizing for the affected number range objects (transaction SNUM). That way when the system reaches the maximum value of a number range interval, it does not start with the minimum value, but rather accesses the table of recyclable EANs/UPCs.

To recycle the EAN/UPC numbers we need to activate the EAN/UPC recycling indicator and specify the retention period as shown above.

As Shown above here we can specify the recycling rules based on some fields like EAN category, material group etc.
