Workflow Maintenance
Purging completed workflow data
The Workflow Process Maintenance window provides an overview over finished workflow processes and allows you to purge completed workflow data. You gain access via a tab in the Adviser module.
Purging workflow data means purging the dehydration storage. When you purge, only workflow data in the dehydration storage is cleaned out. Invoice data still remain in your system and you are still able to search for and view invoice details and audit history. You must enable the purge schedule in order for purge to work.
