This feature allows you to select a one-time purge or an automated purge schedule to delete any files in your portal that are no longer in use.
One Time Purge:
Use this feature to delete files older than a specific date.
Automated Purge:
Users can set up an automated monthly purge that runs on the last day of each month. For example, you can run a monthly purge that deletes all files older than 30 days.
Caution! This feature applies to all clients. Once files are deleted, they cannot be restored. The file purger will not remove eSigns, messages or existing folders. Documents will no longer show in folders or messages where they were previously seen.
