Change log - "Protected" fields?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

We are setting up a change log, and within the retention policy, there is already one where "Protected: Yes" exists. What is the protected field in this case, and is that something that can be seen/changed?

Thanks,

Kevin

    Hello Kevin - It looks like that Fasttab is only available on the Change Log Entry.  Other Retention policies do not have this fasttab.  What I think it means is that records in the change log are considered protected.  It is up to the user to set the Retention Period.  By default, it is showing NEVER DELETE.  This would mean the change log entries wouldn't delete on their own.
