A common use case for any application is cleaning up old data that is no longer needed or used. In FlexDeploy, this comes via Purge Settings in the System Settings page. When the Purge is enabled is possible that Artifacts and Project Versions included in a Snapshot will be deleted. When this happens the Snapshot becomes “Inconsistent”. Generally this should never impact any ongoing software project but you may come across the term when viewing much older Snapshots during a year-end audit or other reporting.
