Automation - File Retention

File Retention allow you to control if and when files are automatically purged from the FTP site based on age since upload. The auto-delete routine runs once per day in the early AM. For auditing purposes, all files deleted by the system will be indicated as such on the Deleted Files Report and in the historical log files.
