Process Instance Retention

You can view the

Process Instance Retention

property on the Deployed Process Version detail page.

You can specify how long to keep completed and faulted processes in the Process Server database before deleting them on an automated schedule. This setting is available in the following locations:

Process Deployment Descriptor editor in Process Developer. You can add the setting to a process’s deployment descriptor.

The Deployed Process Version detail page of the

Application Integration Console

. Add or change the setting for a deployed process.

The default retention days setting for all processes on the

Application Integration Console

. The setting for an individual process overrides this setting.

The retention setting applies to a process version with a status of online or online pending, and not to offline pending or offline versions. The schedule begins on the completed date or faulted date of each process, as shown on the

Processes

page. For example, if a process instance completes on December 31, and the retention setting is 30 days, the process instance is deleted from the database on the next scheduled deletion after January 30.
