Automatic Deletion of File
You can have document filing data in specified folders automatically deleted by specifying the folders and the time.
Periodic deletion of files stored in the machine helps to prevent the disclosure of sensitive information and frees space
on the hard drive.
When [Delete by Schedule] is selected, you can select every day, every week, or every month for the deletion cycle, and
set a scheduled time for each.
When [Delete at Specified Time after Specified Days Have Elapsed] is selected, you can select 1 to 7 days, 10 days, 20
days, or 30 days for the number of elapsed days, and set a scheduled time for each.
Example: Delete the data in the Quick File folder at 9:00 AM 1 day from now.
