Purge Obsolete Workflow Runtime Data Concurrent Program

If you are using the version of Oracle Workflow embedded in Oracle Applications, you can submit the Purge Obsolete Workflow Runtime Data concurrent program to purge obsolete runtime work item information, including status information and any associated notifications and Oracle XML Gateway transactions. Use the Submit Requests form in Oracle Applications to submit this concurrent program.

By default, this program purges obsolete runtime information associated with work items as well as obsolete design information, such as activities that are no longer in use and expired users and roles, and obsolete runtime information not associated with work items, such as notifications or Oracle XML Gateway transactions that were not handled through a workflow process. You can optionally choose to purge only core runtime information associated with work items for performance gain during periods of high activity, and purge all obsolete information as part of your routine maintenance during periods of low activity.

Note: If you are using the version of Oracle Workflow embedded in Oracle Applications and you have implemented Oracle Applications Manager, you can use Oracle Workflow Manager to submit and manage the Purge Obsolete Workflow Runtime Data concurrent program. For more information, please refer to the Oracle Applications Manager online help.
