Using the RSWF_XI_INSTANCES_DELETE report, you can delete process data that is no longer required. This enables you to release the occupied memory. Execute this report regularly to reduce the amount of memory required.
Deletable Data
For performance reasons, data that is no longer required is flagged for deletion in the SWFRXIHDR, SWFRXICNT, and SWFRXIPRC tables. However, the system does not delete this data automatically.
Only data that is not required for the execution of processes is assigned the deletion indicator. Monitoring data can be lost as a result of the deletion. This in turn, can mean that the workflow log no longer contains all data.
Check Deletable Data
The report deletes the selected data without further confirmation. To avoid deleting data unintentionally, it is recommended that you first determine and check the data to be deleted by using the RSWF_XI_INSTANCES_SHOW report.
Note that when you execute the RSWF_XI_INSTANCES_DELETE report, the system deletes the data without further confirmation.
