Hello Jensen Head,

For now that is not possible to remove source files after tool processing, but you can perform such operation using Folder Monitors.
You can read more about Folder Monitors feature in help.

Note that Folder Monitors first of all intended for continuous processing of files that already are/will be added in folder, so maybe it is better to stop your Folder Monitor after task completion.

Feel free to ask questions about Folder Monitors if needed.

Best regards,
