“Big Picture” Question

I’m going to be using WSJT-X and uploading it’s logs via one of the means provided to LOG4OM. I’ll be uploading from LOG4OM to LoTW.
So should I delete log entries from the WSJTX log once they’re in LOG4OM? Should I delete them from LOG4OM once they’re in LoTW, or will I want LOG4OM to retain my complete log of QSO’s forever? LoTW is where I’ll go to see what states or countries I still need for various awards, right?
Thanks & 73,
Randy KB5RJ

Thanks for your input, Terry.
I guess my thinking was that it would be easier if I knew that any entries remaining in the WSJT-X log had not yet been uploaded to LOG4OM, as opposed to having to figure out based on date which ones had not yet been uploaded. Is there a particular reason that I will want all of my digital contact logs to remain in WSJT-X?

sometimes the programs will use the data for a worked before warning or display but the choice is your
