    About this task

    Consider scheduling the delete job to run during non-business hours to minimize the potential performance impact on your users. Deleting all records in a table temporarily locks the table, which prevents inserts and updates. If you want to delete all records from a table, use the table cleaner option instead. For more information, see Deleting older or unwanted records in Core UI.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > System Data Management > Delete jobs.
    2. Select a delete job record.
    3. Determine whether to schedule the delete job for a later time or run it right away.

    Result

    The records are scheduled for deletion or deleted immediately. If you want to restore the deleted records, see Rollback a delete job.
