What is the maximum retention period you can set for documents in DocuSign?

The maximum retention period you can set for documents in DocuSign is indeed 9,999 days. This period allows users to manage document storage effectively while adhering to company policies or legal requirements concerning document retention. Setting a retention period helps ensure that documents are available for reference and compliance purposes without occupying storage indefinitely.

Options that suggest shorter or infinite retention periods do not reflect the actual policy as established by DocuSign. Retaining documents permanently could lead to unnecessary storage costs and complicate compliance with data protection regulations. Thus, the ability to set a maximum of 9,999 days strikes a balance between ensuring document accessibility and maintaining control over data management.
