Managing Folders

4-15

9. AGE

The Age entry point removes reports that are older than (n) number of days. You are prompted to

enter the number of days of reports to retain.

The age of a report is determined by taking today’s date minus the date the report was created.

For example:

:run VISTACLN,age

Enter folder fileset to remove reports from: banner.archive

Enter number of days of reports to retain (// to cancel): 60

Process folder - > BANNER.ARCHIVE

5 Reports removed from folder BANNER.ARCHIVE

10. Merge Folders

The Merge Folders entry point merges reports from one folder into another folder. You will be

prompted for the source and destination folders. The source reports are copied to the destination

folder. In other words, they are not removed from the source folder when they are placed in the

destination folder.

For example:

Enter Source Folder: TESTFD1.ARCHIVE

Enter Destination Folder: SUSAN.ARCHIVE

Report REPORT15 merged into folder SUSAN.ARCHIVE

Report REPORT14 merged into folder SUSAN.ARCHIVE

Report REPORT13 merged into folder SUSAN.ARCHIVE
