Purging Form Data

To purge form data, you must first write to the Form Data tables and assign an expiration date for every page printed with the Forms Engine. Schedule a daily purge job to run the process to purge expired pages. To determine whether such a job exists, use your query tool to issue this query:

SELECT

*

FROM PSPRCSRQST

WHERE PRCSNAME = 'FE_FORM_PUR'

AND RUNSTATUS = 5

If no such process is scheduled to run, you must schedule it. Use the following steps to schedule a process.

1. Select Design Student Administration > Forms Engine > Process > Form Data Purge.

2. Create a run control.

3. Click the Run button.

4. Set the server name.

5. Set the Recurrence value to a daily purge schedule. If you do not have a recurrence, create a new one by selecting PeopleTools > Process Scheduler Manager > Use > Recurrence Definitions to create a new one.

6. Click OK.
