General Information

How long will a purge take?

...

Packages can be purged in any order except for ACP-ACR-INV. ACP & ACR must be purged before INV.

Info

For more information on purging (checklists, how-to, etc): How to Purge a Dataset.

ACP

  • VOUCHERS MUST BE MARKED ACTUAL TO PURGE

  • The dates that control the purge criteria are not affected by marking vouchers actual, so they can be marked actual on today’s date & they will still purge.

...

ACCOUNTS PAYABLE REMARKS FILE

  • ACPRMRKS.ACP

ACR

  • Finance charge invoices are processed through one extra date criteria.  They must be at least 18-months older than the Accounting Date Groups Default Date.  This is done so that Cumulative Finance Charges may still be run on statements.

...

ACCOUNTS RECEIVEABLE BUDGET AGREEMENTS FILE

  • ACRBBMST.ACR

AGY

  • AgroGuide does not have a purge function to delete history, but it does have a purge function to wipe out a client.

  • AgroGuide will not allow a name/address record to be deleted if there is a field history or blend record attached to that name id.

  • AgroGuide has built in the ability to “remove” the key but leave the record for regulatory purposes.
    AGY > AgroGuide > Displays the window that shows farm name tree > go to ACTIONS > Purge client > merge field attributes to the new name id, then you can delete the old name id in AGRIS name/Address.

PAY

  • Purging Payroll is STRONGLY not recommended.

  • All tax reports should be run for purged period.

  • W-2 Forms should be printed & W-2 Diskette created for purged periods
