Custom Retention Rules: This menu item allows you to
maintain the custom data retention rules used on specific tables. These rules are
applicable in Pro2 for tasks like Bulk-Load, Bulk-ASCII-Export, Verification, and
Replication. An IF statement is used to exclude Data that satisfies the condition. To
set custom retention rules, perform the following steps:
- Click Add to open the Add a new
custom retention rule window

- Select the Source DB and the respective Source Table
- Choose the rule Type to specify a new Custom Retention rule
- Add a condition statement
- Click Save
Note: After a Custom Retention Rule is modified you need to regenerate the
bulk-load and replication process library code to bring the change in to
effect.
