  • 1.  Set Purge flag through XOG

    Is it possible to set the purge flag for projects through XOG? If I set purge_flag="true" then XOG fails. Is this just impossible or does the attribute have a different name?

    Hello,  I just XOGged out an inactive project, then set it to "to delete" in the application and XOGged it out again.  The difference between the 2 XML files was that the project had closed="true" in the XML (for the one with purge_flag set) and ="false" for the un-deleted one.  HOWEVER, I tried XOGing the closed="true" file back into the application and it did NOT update the purge_flag?   So perhaps it is not supported?  (This was in 8.1 FP03)

    I tried the same but my XOG Output matches, no changed attributes. Too bad, I guess this just doesn't work through XOG.

    Hi Gerwin,

     

    There is no option how a project can be marked for deletion through XOG. You have to do it from the PPM application UI only and then run the delete investment job. Hope that answers your question.
