Post skimming clean up

Blueprint and App Design

We recently performed skimming on our application rulesets. We have a large code base (~2 lakh records).

I am looking at recommendations from PEGA, on how to delete the older versions (rules other than those from the current major version). Please advise and let me know the best practices on post skimming clean up activities.

If you have done Major skimming, I am not sure if you need to separate clean up activity.

Also, You need to check for referencing for rules for clean upon

Hi @RAJESWARAN,

Please follow the below steps and try to delete,

Log in to Dev Studio.

  1. Navigate to Application > Tools > Refactor Rules.

  2. Select Skim a RuleSet.

  3. In the Skim Ruleset wizard, follow the prompts to create the skimmed version.

  4. Post skimming, use the RuleSet Maintenance Wizard to target old versions.

  • Navigate to Application > Distribution > RuleSet Maintenance.
  • Select the appropriate options to identify old versions for deletion.

  1. Validate the rules identified for deletion by reviewing the dependencies.

  2. Use the Rule Query Utility to create custom queries if necessary:

  • Navigate to Records > Technical > Activity and create a new activity.
  • Use the Obj-Delete-By-Handle method to delete specific rule instances.
  1. Perform the deletions in a controlled manner, validating at each step.

Regards,
