Automatic removal of activities for streamlining relevance in the activity stream

The activities purge job is designed to eliminate activity records that are no longer pertinent to daily operations. The relevance of these activities is determined by rules set by individual object teams.

This process specifically targets activity entries that were generated when users interacted with records, such as making field-level adjustments or creating/updating notes, tasks, or appointments over a long period of time. It does not affect the actual parent or child object records; only the entries in the activity stream that meet the defined purge criteria are removed.

The job is executed through an automatically scheduled through Oracle Enterprise Scheduler (ESS) job. The job is executed once in every 7 days.

The activities purge job ensures that the business users are presented most relevant information and also prevents the customer instances being used to store information that is not useful.
