  6. A prompt will appear asking if you want to send over the purge request(s). If an item that has been selected to be purged has a future airdate scheduled, a prompt will appear for that item, informing you that it is scheduled. Click yes to send over the purge request for that item, or no to cancel the request. Once the purge request has been approved, a purge order will be sent over to Crispin’s Loading Dock, and you can monitor the progress of the purge from there. Once an item has been purged, a new version of it may be ingested, by following the procedure listed in the File-Based Ingest article.
