NOTE: The program which loads the snapshot data for fleet utilization will also, at the same time, purge any records older than 550 days (approx 18 months or 1.5 years). Therefore, there will never be data in this file older than 550 days. If there is any possibility that data older than 550 days from the current date will be required at any point in time, then this report should be printed on a daily basis to a local file for future reference.
To access the program, type PURGEFLT at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate number on the Purge Non-Dependent Files Menu. The screen will then display:
| OPTION: PURGE FLTSUM FILE 1 Cutoff Date 04-09-07 2 Second Employee 1DO PURGE 2 3 4 5BACKUP 6 7HELP 8 |
Enter data as follows:
|
1. CUT OFF DATE |
Using your selected date format, enter the date to purge through. This date defaults to a year earlier than the current date. Records with earlier dates will be purged and, therefore, will not be available for Fleet Utilization Report. EXAMPLE:Type 123111 (RET) |

2. SECOND EMPLOYEE |
A field in the Edit Miscell. Control Fields screen specifies whether or not a second employee code is required in order to perform a purge of this file. If required, a second employee (who is allowed access to the purge program) must enter their employee code and password before the purge will be performed.If the purge is attempted without the second authorized user, the following message will display and the purge will not begin: INVALID VALIDATING EMPLOYEE, PROGRAM ABORT EXAMPLE: Type MMG(RET) |
|
PRESS "F1" AT "OPTION:" TO BEGIN .
This purge can be scheduled to run automatically using the Auto Create Report feature. When scheduled that way, the second employee code and password are not required. Contact Thermeon’s Customer Support Dept. for more information.
