Audit Log Purge Scheduler Utility
The Audit Log Purge Scheduler utility allows you to schedule tasks for purging audit records on specific date and time. This utility helps improve operational efficiency by enabling you to schedule purging jobs as a batch process, so that any purge action could be run automatically during off-peak hours. You can set frequency for recurring jobs, or run a purging job manually on need basis.
Only site administrators have permissions to create and manage scheduled tasks.

Once the audit records are purged, they are permanently deleted. To preserve the data, it is recommended that you generate and export the content to a spreadsheet prior to purging the audit logs. For more information, see Generating a Security Audit Report and Exporting to a File

Click to open an information page where you can view additional details about a purge schedule including accessing optional documents where the purge records can be archived.
