To change the retention schedule of a whole department or category follow the below steps:
Step 1
Click on "Settings" and then on "Department / Category". A list of the departments will be display on the left hand side.
Step 2
Click on the department you wish to change the retention of and on your right hand side a list of the categories within that department will be displayed.
Step 3
If you click on the pencil located to the right of the category's name a window will pop up which gives you access to edit the category.
Note: It's important to mention that once you finish changing the destruction period, click "Save & Sync Dates" - this will sync all the documents within that category; if we only click "Save" this change will only apply to new documents created within the category.
