11.19.Configuration of Delete job in File archive

This job type deletes data, which have been archived, from the archive.

Note: First, you need to mark files/emails for delete in contentACCESS Portal (read more in this section).

Go to Jobs -> Add new -> Delete from archive.

On the job’s configuration page go through the following sections; most of them are mandatory, filtering settings are optional:

✓ Running mode settings
The job can be run in 3 modes:

1) Immediate deletion -> collects the expired documents and deletes them.

2) Create report -> collects the expired documents and provides a csv file with a list of documents. The administrator can delete documents from the list.

3) Apply report -> a csv file with a list of documents to be deleted must be uploaded. The administrator can delete documents from the list before running the job (only documents which are in the list will be processed). The job reads the list and if the documents are expired, deletes them.

✓ Scheduling settings
In this step the running times of the delete job must be selected. It is possible either to select a scheduler from the list or to create a new scheduler via the “Create new …” option.

✓ Folders to process
In this section the user is required to select the folder(s) where the archived data are located. There are two available options how the list of folders may be specified:

  1. The folder(s) may be added via +new option. In this case the folder(s) must be added manually one-by-one. Click on +new to open the File Path dialog.

Click on “new” to specify the folder from where the files should be deleted. In the “Folder to process” dialog unroll the list of already created roots and select the one that should be applied. This dropdown lists the roots that are already configured (in File Archive settings: File Archive Settings Root folders). Enter the Relative path if necessary, test the path via the “Test” button and click “OK”.

    1. The folder list may be also imported from a file. The file to be imported must contain the list of folders that should be processed. Click the import button and the Import file location dialog opens. Specify here the required settings according to chapter Importing contentACCESS configurations from files of this guide.


✓ Processing settings
In this section, you may check the Delete even if not marked for delete checkbox. If you do so, the Delete job will delete the expired item without them needing to be marked for delete.

✓ Filtering settings:
Click on the Change filter button and set the filtering according to your needs and/or regulations. To learn more about how to work with filtering settings, please, check this section of our documentation.

Note: In certain cases, the creation date of a file is set to younger date than the modification date of a file. This happens when a file is copied to another external disk (for example from disk G to disk I). In this case, the creation date will be set to the date of the copy action. Because of this, we recommend to always check Filtering settings if something does not get processed.

✓ Notification settings
Select here, when you will need to get notification emails from the Delete job. It is possible to set here if you need a notification email always/never, or you need it only if an error/warning occurred during the process − for example, if the deletion of one or more items failed, then you may get a notification email about this error. Into the Recipient list textbox insert the email addresses of the people whom you would like to send these emails to – if there are multiple recipients, the addresses must be separated by “,” or “;”.

✓ Resource settings
Set the value, which will determine how many items will be processed simultaneously by the delete job. The recommended value is 2, as in our case.

At the end never forget to save your job configurations: click on Save in the left upper corner of UI.

When does the document expire?

1) If the protected retention has expired (archive date / reference date + protected retention is in the past) and the document is not under legalhold and the document is marked for deletion

2) If the unprotected retention is defined and has expired (archive date / reference date + unprotected retention is in the past)
