Creating New Purge Scheduler Entries
The Purge Scheduler manages the times when data that is no longer needed and relevant is removed from the Connect database. A scheduled time for the purge is created in each of the Purge Manager modules. A start and end time is configured along with the frequency of the data purge.
Note: Multiple schedule periods can be configured for each module.
