 AS/400 saved fax cleanup
AS/400 Faxing
We are looking for a way in which we can manage the retention days of our sent faxes (outqueue - QFFSNDSAV). I thought this would be manageable through CFGFAXSRV *clnupjob but doesn't appear to include the saved faxes in the cleanup. Is anyone familiar with how this can be done? Thanks for your help.

Software/Hardware used:
AS/400 - 520

You should be able to treat this just like any other spool file. You can use EXPDATE & DAYS options on the printer file. If the printer file name is constant you change just do a CHGPRTF, Else, you will may need to go int CL programs and do OVRTPRT. === The above steps will put an expiration date on your spool files. Then you need to schedule running of the DLTEXPSPLF command to remove them once they are expired. I just have that scheduled to run once a week on a Sunday morning.

IBM posted an example spool file cleanup command – DLTOLDSPLF.  Since all the code is included it can be modified to fit your requirements.  Its works well.  We have used it for years.
