Lakshma,

We can purge shipments and Orders from the front end.

Navigate to,

Configuration and administration --> process management --> DataPurge

(for example)

Command : shipment
Age in days: 3 ( you can give any number of days)
Domain name: yourdomain
Email : abc@xyz.com

And check the box purge by application --> now.

If you choose schedule then you can specify the time also when you want the data to be purged.

When you choose the option purge by application, then there is a purge procedure that has come through the product that performs this function.


Hope this helps...

Regds--
Arun.
