Description
Temporary Icon for temporary folder
In general, File Exchange serves as a temporary storage location for files that we need to pass on to you. Files will remain in temporary folders for 14 days, after which DT Staff Portal removes them automatically.
A clock appears on the icon for temporary folders. When you open a temporary folder, the application displays in the Expiration date column the date on which each file will be automatically removed.
Permanent Icon for permanent folder
DT Staff Portal does not delete files that are placed in permanent folders. A lock appears on the icon for permanent folders.
