Why Choose This Module
Stop guessing how long to keep tax returns, audit workpapers, payroll and HR records. This app turns your record-retention policy into a living schedule: every tracked record is tied to a retention policy, its destruction-eligible date is computed automatically, legal holds freeze records the moment litigation is anticipated, and every disposition is written to a permanent, tamper-resistant purge log so you can prove defensible destruction.
