Delete Source Files

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

The delete applies to files read from a file-based source connection once they have been processed.

When to Change This Setting

Keep the default Y so the source location does not accumulate processed files. Disable it when the source files must be retained, for example when the source system owns the file lifecycle or another process consumes the files.

Archive Source FilesMoves source files to the archive container after processing
Delete Landing FilesThe equivalent delete for landed files
