The PRCSYSPURGE application engine program basically purges process request tables and Updates statistics (if ‘Update Table Stats on Purge’=1 in psprcs.cfg file). If more than one Process Scheduler server exists, the AE program PRCSRVCLN is scheduled to run to clean up the Report Repository tables for a specific server.
The frequency of PRCSYSPURGE process can be set in the navigation: PeopleTools > Process Scheduler > System Settings > System Purge Option
Security Setup requirements:
• The user running the purge process must have access to the process group TLSALL within the primary process profile.
• The user running the process should have ‘ProcessSchedulerAdmin’ role and ‘ReportDistAdmin’ role.
• The Oprid must have the “Can start Application Server” permission assigned.
• The Oprid must have a valid Process Profile and Primary Permission List.
Security Setup Steps:
• Navigate to PeopleTools -> User Profiles, search and Select the Oprid for which access needs to be given.
• Add the following roles ‘ProcessSchedulerAdmin’, ‘ReportDistAdmin’, ‘PeopleSoft User’, ‘PeopleTools’.
• Now go to the General tab, note the Process Profile value and Save the component.
• Navigate to PeopleTools > User Profiles > Permissions & Roles, Select Permission Lists and search for the Permission List noted in previous step.
• On the General tab, select the ‘Can Start Application Server?’ checkbox.
• Select the Process tab and in the “Process Group” link enter a new value: “TLSALL” (PRCSYSPURGE program is delivered with the TLSALL process group).
• Hit Ok to return to the previous page and save.
Steps to Configure PRCSYSPURGE Process:
• Define report nodes for all active process schedulers.
• Configure Master Scheduler since Master Scheduler is going to run the purge process.
• Ensure that the user ID that starts the process scheduler is included in a process group for PRCSYSPURGE (TLSALL).
• Configure the System Purge Options page.
• Enable Purge.
