Cleaning Up Change Logs

The Change Logs Clean Up tool enables you to schedule an automatic clean up of old Change Logs. Cleaning up these old logs helps keep your orgs efficient and organized.

Netwrix recommends this clean up process be used as part of your Salesforce data backup and recovery plan. You should discuss with your compliance team how many months/years of Change Logs you need to retain and how this should be split between live and archived data.

  1. Open Netwrix Dashboard > Tools > Change Logs Clean Up

    Open the Change Logs Clean Up Tool

  2. Set up the schedule to run the tool:

    • Frequency can be set to Daily or Weekly.
    • Day specifies the day to run the Clean Up if a Weekly Frequency is selected.
    • Time specifies the time to run the Clean Up. Format is hh:mm AM/PM
    • Months to Retain specifies the number of months before a Change Log becomes a Clean Up candidate.

  3. Enable the schedule using the toggler.
