Did You Know? JDE has Purge Functionality!

Purge functionality has existed in JDE since the 70's, so this is not new. However, out of the hundreds of upgrades we have participated in, I would approximate 40% of the JDE customers had a wish to do some archiving before the upgrade. Unfortunately doing archiving/purging in the middle of an upgrade is a non-starter due to the baked in conversions between JDE versions. Stripping away records then converting would introduce too much risk.
