| History Purge (tffam8208m000) |  |
| Use this session to remove historical summary and asset data with related books and distributions from ERP LN without running the Period End (tffam8205m000) session. ERP LN only purges closed periods. You can use the session to remove data, which was not removed during the period-end process. You can also run this session to remove data that you restored beyond the normal history-retention periods but that you do not want to retain until the next period-end. You can purge summary data, detail data, or both during this session. When you run the Period End (tffam8205m000) session, ERP LN automatically purges historical data based on the history-retention rules specified in the FAM Parameter (tffam0100s000) session. You can override the retention rules when you run the current session to remove restored historical data for a company. If you have restored historical data in ERP LN, you must modify the history-retention rules in the FAM Parameter (tffam0100s000) session in order to retain the additional data. You must also run the Period End (tffam8205m000) session. Note For assets subject to ADR or MACRS group tax reporting, ERP LN does not purge data from the ADR books, even if the retention periods have been exceeded. ERP LN purges the ADR books for these assets when all the assets in the vintage/group account have been disposed of. Related topics History Retention Rules
