Overview of Repetitive Schedule Purge
You can purge repetitive schedule information using Purge Repetitive Schedules (Form) and Purge Repetitive Schedules (SRS). You can purge all information associated with repetitive schedules including their schedule header records and schedule detail and transaction information. You can also selectively purge the following repetitive schedule information: schedule details (material requirements, resource requirements, and operations), move transactions, and resource cost transactions. Selective purging allows you to retain pertinent historical information. For example, you can retain operation information but purge move transactions associated with these operations.
Purge Rules
A repetitive schedule may not purge if the any of the following information still exists:
- material transactions that reference the repetitive schedule
You can purge material and completion transaction information associated with repetitive schedules in Oracle Inventory. See: Purge Transactions.
- purchase transactions, purchase requisitions, or purchase orders that reference the repetitive schedule in Oracle Purchasing.
- quality results records that reference the repetitive schedule
Reporting
You can submit a request to print a Purge Report as you purge repetitive schedules. When you print a report as part of the purge process, the output of the report is determined by the defaulted purge parameters used and the level of detail choosen (Full, Summary, or Excepting) in the Purge Options window.
The Purge Report can also be submitted independently of the purge process using the Submit Requests window. When submitted independently of the purge process, only the jobs and/or schedules that failed to purge are listed.
