If you want to delete old shortdumps from your SAP system then you can use the following ways to do this.Importing point is ; before you delete them, you must analyze the cause of the short dump using transaction code ST22.
Let’s check these ways on an example situation like below ;

To delete these entries , first option is using the ABAP program RSSNAPDL
Go to SE38 and execute the program as shown below
Change the values of the program for your own condition and EXECUTE
Second option to delete these entries , just open ST22 and run “Reorganize” option
ST22 –> Goto –> Reorganize
Change the value of “Older than …” and click the Reorganize button
Third option is dropping the related SNAP table , goto SE14 –> drop and recreate the SNAP table.
Don’t forget that , when you are doing this all short dumps are deleted.
