Selectively Purge Paid History - APOHUTPU

This utility (obsolete with Workflow approvals) selectively purges paid history in the Open Hold database. It is useful for clearing away aged data from the active database. It is recommended that data stay in the system at least long enough for 1099s to be printed. It is common to archive the data to a tape or hard disk storage drive before it is purged from the database. 

"As Of" date, after which records are not to be purged: Enter the date, in MM/DD/YY form, after which records are not to be purged (i.e. all entries with a Check Date after the entered date will remain in the Open A/P database).
OH Selection Criteria: If all paid records meeting the date criteria from the first prompt should be purged, press <Enter>. Otherwise, click on the plus box to see the selection options. Enter the code or number associated with the selection.
Is this a trial run? Check for Yes if this is a trial run. A trial run should be launched to see what would happen if the process is actually launched. No purge will occur. Select No if this is not a trial run. The options selected will cause the corresponding entries to be purged off the system.
Would you like to include Reversals (Yes/No) Selecting Yes to this question will cause entries with a status of "RV" to be purged, as well as those with a status of "PD." If the OH status is "RV," the entry will be purged only if the matching entry in the check database is also "RV."
Would you like to purge only canceled checks (Yes/No): Answering "Y" to this question will cause entries with a status of "PD" to be purged only if their matching entry in the check database has a check status of canceled (CX). 

A complete backup of the database should be performed in case of any errors in selection criteria.
