Requirement before running the data archiving wizard

Hi all,

I have been researching the requirements before running the archiving wizard.  So is running the inventory valuation utility a "MUST" before data archiving?

I have completed the IVI in RSP and the result is "database is heathy"

I also run some SQL commands based on the script provided in 1461889 and fixed all the inventory-related errors.

Please advise whether i still need to perform the inventory valuation utility.

Thanks
