WMS Archived Transfer Purge (WM89)

The Purge Archived Transfer Files (WM89) program works with both the Elite WMS warehouse system and Accellos.

The archived data includes the WM45 lines that are flagged as 'retried' or 'skipped', the staging tables used by WM32/WM33, and the logging files.

  • If you are working with Accellos, WM89 purges the backup copies made of the upload/download text files generated for transferring information between Accellos and PFE up to and including the date entered. For more information on these files, see the 'Transferring Files Between Enterprise and Warehouse Management' section of the Using Warehouse Management document.

Note: You can run WM89 at any time.
