SQL Table - Data Cleanup

Hi Community,

I've created a method in my File Service to do a cleanup for every file load. Currently, I've set it to delete data when LastUpdated date is greater than maxdate. However, I want to do a cleanup for every new file load. Any suggestions or advice on how to do this? Thanks!

Method Cleanup()
{

   Set tMaxDate = ""
   &SQL(SELECT Max(LastUpdated) into :tMaxDate
   FROM MC_Table_Data.Patient) 
 

   &SQL(DELETE MC_Table_Data.Patient WHERE LastUpdated<:tMaxDate)
}
