Hi Amy,

I think that the User=No just means that you cannot control how often the job runs.  The job runs weekly and you cannot make it run nightly.

Dale set retention periods and then enabled the letters to be purged here at Edmonds and it seems to be working.  As long as you have enabled the Letter Retention table, then I think you should be deleting the attachments in patron records.

I’ve been working on purging some letters/attachments after a certain number of days.  I’ve enabled and edited the retention periods for those letters, and am finally ready to allow some letters/attachments to actually be purged.  However when I go to Monitor Jobs, the “Letters purge with retention” job is not active and there is no way to activate it:

And according to the Alma documentation, this is NOT something that I am allowed to change:

So do I need to open a Salesforce Case to activate that job?  Or am I missing something somewhere?
