Maintain Application Folder

The Maintain Application Folder process purges files from the inbox, outbox, and data folder directories. Data Management accepts a separate Days to Keep parameter for each of the folders. If the value is not specified for a specific folder, Data Management/Data Integration skips the folder.

By default, the system purges all files after 60 days. Logs are purged after 7 days.

In addition, Data Management checks the inbox and outbox subdirectories under the respective folders and deletes any files. In the data subdirectory, Data Management skips the scripts directory because it holds customer scripts.
