Periodically Purging To Do Entries

The To Do Entry is configured for Information Lifecycle Management. This is the recommended tool for managing older records.

A purging batch process is also supplied F1-TDPG. However, it has some limitations that should be considered. The purging process does not perform any referential integrity. As such, if you are proactively purging records that are not very old, they could be referenced by other objects that are still active.

The process purges Completed To Do entries. This background process offers you the following choices:

  • You can purge all To Do entries older than a given number of days.

  • You can purge To Do entries for a specific list of To Do types that are older than a given number of days.

  • You can purge all To Do entries except for a specific list of To Do types that are older than a given number of days.

Note: Different retention periods for different types of To Do entries. Keep in mind that the purge program allows you to retain different types of entries for different periods of time.
