• Advisor Terminated

• Client Account Closed

• Custom EBR Configured

Client Account Closed and the The above are the only retention rules that are currently available to be used on the system. Admin users will see other additional rules, however, these do not currently have the logic built into the system for these them to work. Advisor Terminated and Work Item Completed should be available in the future phase phases of the product.

Once Docupace has created the custom events, your admins can apply the events to your retention rules.
