Setting Up Archiving and Purging Policies

The budgeting modules use the archiving policy definitions listed in the table below to archive and purge data in the database.

  • Archiving data copies it to the archive schema.
  • Purging data removes it permanently from the database.

You should create a parent task that includes these definitions in the same order as in the table, below.

You use the following menu path to access the archiving policy definitions:

Maintenance > System Administration > Archiving > Archiving Policy Definitions

For more information on defining and modifying these archiving policy definitions, see the Infor WFM Tools Administration Guide.

Archiving Policy Definition Description

LB BUP DATA Archives the data for the layout and history from bottom-up projections.
LB SUMMARY DATA Purges the data for the aggregated bottom-up projection that is no longer required.
