Purge Old Iterations

Use this option to purge all records in the iteration repository for a specific year. This option enables you to free space on your server, since iterations usually store a large amount of data.

For the most part, you use this option to purge prior year iterations. The purge process does not affect the ledger account data stored in Fund Accounting. It deletes iterations in both Budget Preparation and Personnel Budgeting.

Menu Path:  Budget Preparation > Entry & Processing > Miscellaneous > Purge Old Iterations.
