Hi!
So, we are trying to figure out how to set up automatic removal rules for employee data in the system. This includes:
Microsoft themselves haven't been able to provide me with a step-by-step guide for over a month. I'm thinking, since Microsoft is such a huge company, this should be a piece of cake for them really. Since they're not answering, I'm trying in this forum instead.
Does anyone have any ideas of where a step-by-step guide (not articles provided by Microsoft with not clear instructions) can be found about this, and if it's even possible to set up this in the system?
Many thanks in advance!
Hi Parag!
Since, according to GDPR, you're only allowed to store personal data as long as there's a purpose for it. Otherwise, it should be deleted.
So, when any employee leaves the company, we no longer have use of their emergency contacts, their home phone number, private email address etc. But, because of country-regulated laws, information such as bank details, sick notes etc sometimes need to be kept for a longer period after someone has left the company.
So, because there's different times for when something should be deleted depending on the type of data, we need to be able to set this up so the system automatically can delete data based upon our preferences.
Hi there,
I am not sure whether it is possible but there are some parameters in the system where you can hide some information.
What kind of information do you want to delete and at what situation?
Is it something like employee terminated or exited?
You can create integration and delete the data via power automate or logic apps.
