You can achieve better performance and maintain database sanity by regularly deleting the stale data that exists in the forms and record definitions. Use the Data Cleanup utility to scan and delete the stale data from forms and record definitions that are not used by the AR System server.
By default, the Data Cleanup utility runs on a set of pre-defined forms and records definitions with non-functional data which tend to grow quickly.
Use the AR System: Stale Data Cleanup form through Mid Tier to update the out-of-the-box forms and record definitions and define the age of data in your environment.
An administrator schedules the Data Cleanup utility run by using the Stale-Data-Cleanup-Cron-Job-Schedule setting in the Centralized Configuration.
