If your files have become too large, purging history can be a valuable tool. Purging removes all transactions that have a transaction date older than and including the purge date you specify. You are not required to purge transactions, but doing so might speed up the processing time when you sort or print reports from history.

To purge purchase order history, select Resources and Tools > Purge History from the left navigation pane.

Enter the date through which you want to purge the history files. Only history information that is prior to and including the date you enter will be purged.
