I have data saved in Appian DB ,
I want to export all the data into an excel and store in a location ,and the data need to be deleted from DB,
But before deletion I need to send an EMAIL (after a week ) as kind of reminder that Data will be deleted .
Then I have to remove all the DATAS from DB .
And this process need to be performed on the starting of every month .
Is it the correct approach ?
I am getting 2 files from 2 tables , but Encryption node allwos one document to be protected with password .how will they be passed to get encrypted

Few questions:
1) from how many tables you have to export the data?
2) On which loation you have to store the files?
Few suggestions:
1) You have to make your start node as a timer node. To do this, right click on the start event-> go to trigger-> select timer. Configure the timer properties.
2) Between Excrypt excel node and send email node, user timer node to delay it for 7 for days.
Rest looks good.
For 2 tables I have to extract the data . The location is out of APPIAN .
In the output of the export datastore entity to excel.
In the output I am storing the result(New Document) in a PV and using it .
That's Correct
Is there any chance that in this process any error/exception will occur . How to handle them ,If yes
That you have to test it.
If i want 3 different files which will be password protected and download to a folder, how to do that
Download to a folder mean?
there are 2 files which gets generated from Export to DB node , but the next node Encryption with Pwd allows only 1 document to get encrypted . But i want both the files to be protected with password.
Then you can MNI on that node or You can create for loop in Process model by using XOR gateway.
But in MNI how will I pass 2 files.
You have to use index functionality. for example: local!ab[tp!instanceindex] here ab is your document variable.
Note: You document process variable is of multiple type and store the document id into this process variable by using append functionality.
