Retention policies Info from the help files :)
It is vital that retention categories are understood and set up correctly before archiving of live data begins.Companies may take a long time to decide on their retention policies, so ask about retention policies as soon as possible. Once an item is archived you cannot change its retention category. You can change the name of the retention category and the retention period, but if an item is archived with, say, the ‘Business’ retention category you cannot then change the retention category to ‘Personal’ except by restoring the item and then re-archiving it. Retention category will only change for items archived in the future. If you want to change the retention category for items why not rename and change the properties of the existing retention categories? This will apply to stored and everything that will be stored in the future.If you later modify a Retention Category, the changes are retrospective. For example, if you have a Retention Category called Customer Accounts with a Retention Period of 5 years and you change the Retention Period to 10 years, then items that have been already archived with the Customer Accounts Retention Category will be retained for a minimum of 10 years.
