+1Hi Nintex community,
I have an approval task list for HR team. It has around 9,000 task items. I was in the impression that the “Workflow Auto Cleanup” timer job will delete the Tasks that are completed in 60 days. For some reason it is not working as expected.
I have checked the Workflow Association Auto cleanup days for each workflow and it is all set to 60 days. May I please request your assistance in resolving the above issue.
Thank you
Regards,
JJ

Hi @JJay
The Workflow Auto Cleanup job should have removed the completed or cancelled workflows as per MS articles:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/ahmedamin/sharepoint-workflow-auto-cleanup
If you suspect this isn't working correctly, then you may wish to open a ticket with MS to troubleshoot this native Sharepoint job.
In the meantime, you can create a new tasklist and associate this with any newly started workflows.
