Auto delete/deactivate page

[jamesm77050123]

I'm working on enhancing an existing ecommerce page. The product is created using scaffolding, a page is created and the product is imported into the page. One of the product parameters is a sale date. The client wants the product and the page to be automatically deactivated and deleted when the sale date has passed. Is this possible? I've attached a screenshot of the product creation page

Dear James,

Deactivate later is OOTB functionality present in AEM.

Delete after deactivate is not OOTB and would require a customisation.

This customisation can be achieved using AEM Workflow system.

Regards,

Peter

OOTB a page deletion on an AEM author also unpublishing the page. You can easily build your solution by using workflows:

Request for Deactivation - /etc/workflow/models/request_for_deactivation

Request for Deletion - /etc/workflow/models/request_for_deletion

As Peter and Leo point out - the solution here is using Workflows.

      I think may be you can solve this issue by using a scheduler you can solve this issue. Run the scheduler every night and check for the product's sale date against current date and deactivate those which are expired. I am pasting few links from www below,
