The quantity of data in the JD Edwards system was growing and performance was starting to decline.
Karen Riner, Systems Administrator at Tyndale originally saw Purge-it! at JD Edwards INFOCUS.
“I was particularly impressed by how the JDE archiving tool was developed and built as part of the JDE ERP system.”

Selecting a JDE archiving solution
The top 3 reasons J&P Cycles chose Purge-it! over a competitor’s product:
- Klik ITʼs archiving solution is coded in E1 so there is no learning curve
- Archive data can be accessed directly from the production environment
- Purge-it! is a low maintenance archiving solution
Installation & setup
“Getting the Purge-it! software installed and up and running was straightforward. The Klik IT team are very easy to work with and we’ve found the ongoing support to be excellent.”
At the outset, J&P Cycles pulled out between three and four years of data from the production system. Since then, using Purge-it!, J&P Cycles has found it much easier to maintain the size of its production database.
Purge-it! in action
On an ongoing basis, J&P Cycles tends to purge some of the quick growth tables weekly, such as EDI and the custom tables. This is fast to complete using Purge-it! and only takes a couple of hours. The standard modules
are purged annually.
“One of the key differences we’ve experienced since deploying Purge-it! is that it’s far simpler to spot and resolve trouble areas around the large tables.”
