Thank You i got it. I use below procedure to schedule the job and my understanding is
 job_action => 'begin purge_audit_trail(90); end;', --> the purge will keep only 90 days record. Plz correct me if i am wrong

BEGIN
  sys.dbms_scheduler.create_job(

    job_name => 'AUDIT_PURGE',
    job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
    job_action => 'begin purge_audit_trail(90); end;',
    schedule_name => 'MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_GROUP',     job_class => '"DEFAULT_JOB_CLASS"',
    comments => 'Audit Trail Purge',
    auto_drop => FALSE,
    start_date => SYSTIMESTAMP,
    repeat_interval => 'SYSTIMESTAMP + 1 /* 1 Day */');     enabled => TRUE);
END;
