Hi Ian

The process for manual purging is not well explained in the help documentation - I will get this updated.

Manual purges are used to select individual users to purge rather than all users who are are deleted or suspended.

Once you have defined a manual purge type to run this requires you to select the user - using the Browse list of users and select user status of Suspended or Deleted depending on the purge type.

Select the User data icon for the user you want to purge.

 

Then select the Purge type and Purge user buttons


The automatic purges are controlled through the scheduled tasks
