Delete Landing Files

Determines if the landed files are deleted once processing is completed.

The delete applies when Archive Landing Files is disabled; when archiving is enabled the files are moved to the archive container rather than deleted in place. Pushdown extractions do not generate the delete.

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default Y so the landing area does not accumulate processed files. Disable it when landed files must be retained in place, for example when another process consumes them after loading.

Archive Landing FilesWhen enabled, files are archived instead of deleted in place
