Future item retention category

Description

The name of the retention category to use for calendar, meeting, and task items that have end dates in the future; that is, unexpired calendar, meeting, and task items. The retention category must exist.

If Enterprise Vault storage expiry for your site is based on the archived date of an item, then archived calendar, meeting, or task items with an end date in the future could be deleted by Enterprise Vault storage expiry before the end date of the item. To prevent this, you can create a retention category that Enterprise Vault will apply automatically to such items when they are archived, and specify this retention category in this policy setting. In the retention category properties, we recommend that you set the value of Base expiry on to Modified date, and configure the retention period as Retain items forever.

Note:

The retention category will not be applied retrospectively to items that have already been archived.

Supported values

  • The name of an existing retention category that you have set up to be used for these items. For example, Future Calendar Items.

  • Leave blank to use the default retention category for the provisioning group. This is the default value.
