Purging Orders (MPOR, FORP, VORP, DORP)
Purpose: Use the Purge Orders function to purge closed and canceled orders that have been inactive for a given period.
Which orders are purged? In addition to being closed or cancelled, the order must:
• not have had any activity for the Order Purge Days (C62) defined in the System Control file. For example, if you define 365 as the order purge days for your company, a closed or canceled order will be eligible for purging if the order has not been entered, shipped, or maintained for one year. The system checks the Order Transaction History file for the most recent activity.
• not have any pending returns or refunds.
• not have any A/R open items in an open status.
You can perform the Purge Orders function in one step using the Purge Orders Screen (MPOR) or in 3 steps using the:
• Flag Orders for Purge Screen (FORP) (flags the orders for purge)
• Validate Order Status Screen (VORP) (validates orders that are flagged for purge)
• Purge Orders Deletion Screen (DORP) (purges the flagged orders)
If you select to purge orders at the Purge Orders Screen (MPOR), you have the option of archiving the orders to optical disk. If you select to purge orders at the Purge Orders Deletion Screen (DORP), you have the option to turn off journaling while you are processing the order purge job in order to save system resources
The system deletes all of the Order-Related Files. The system also produces the Purged Order List.
The system does not delete the customer's order or item history; you can review this information through the Work with Customers function.
Note: If you have the Archive Orders to Optical Disk (D81) system control value set to Y, the system does not actually purge the orders when you use this function; you must use Archiving Orders to Optical Disk (AOPT) to copy the orders to the optical disk storage and purge them from main storage. See Archiving Orders to Optical Disk (AOPT).

Description |
The system subtracts the order purge days from this date to calculate a cutoff date for purging orders. For example, if the purge date is 9/30, and the order purge days are 30, the system subtracts 30 days from 9/30 to arrive at a cutoff date of 8/31. Closed and canceled orders that have not been entered, shipped, or updated in any way since the cutoff date will be purged. Also, the orders must not have any pending returns or refunds, or have any A/R open items in an open status. The system defaults the current date into this field; however, you can override it with a past or future date. Numeric, 6 positions (MMDDYY format); required. |
