Disable purging of recoverable items

Is it possible to disable the ability to purge items from Recovery\Deletions in Exchange 2010? I know it can be 'sort of' done by enabling 'Single Item Recovery', but that makes the purged deleted item go from Recovery\Deletions to Recovery\Purges. After
this the user can't restore the item anymore using 'Recover Deleted Items' in Outlook.

We don't have single item recovery or litigation hold enabled and rather don't want to have to use it at all (like I stated in my opening post).
If the recovery could not be purged by the normal user and just auto-purge after 30 days, this would not be necessary and the end user would always be able to restore everything themselves without the intervention of an Exchange admin.
- With single item recovery we need admin intervention on each and every case of missing items.
- With litigation hold Recovery doesn't purge at all anymore
I disagree with the first point.  It is very rare for a user to empty their deleted items, and then purge their recoverable items folder and then ask for IT staff to restore the message.  Single Item Recovery prevents you from having to go to tape
in this scenario and is therefore a timesaver and something you can delegate to lower-level helpdesk staff.

  • Exchange 2013 Recoverable Items\Versions folder stays empty

    Hi All,
    I need some clarifications on Recoverable Items Folder.
    Versions: If either litigation hold or single item recovery is enabled and If a user modifies an item, a copy of the original item is placed in the Recoverable Items\Versions folder, by a process called copy-on-write page protection. This
    folder isn’t visible to end users. (Visible via MFCMAPI though)
    I don’t seem to be practically achieve this with Single Item Recovery Enabled.
    The Versions folder stays empty irrespective of edits(saves) I make on emails located in Inbox, Deleted Items or elsewhere.
    I would really appreciate some light here on how to get this going.
    NOTE:- Deletions and Purges folder are working just fine.

    Thank you Allen and Shweta for your response.
    Sorry for not being clearer earlier. Below are the current settings for the user.
    I have already enabled SingleItemRecovery for the user and checking the 'versions' folder using Get-MailboxFolderStatistics cmdlet and MFCMAPI tool.
    What I want is to get the versions folder count\size to increase, how can I get that tested.
    Please  guide me through the steps to make edits on the email items to make this happen.

    I am sorry Erickkasner but there is no longer direct support provided for Creative Suite 5.5 installation issues.
    You are welcome to post any specific errors you are able to discover within your installation log to this discussion.  Since you are using Windows then Exit Code 15 could mean one of the following:

    Hi Rajesh,
    I've seen your query all over the internet, so I should warn you I don't believe it's possible to disable a List Item.
    For that you should use Josh Tynjala's open source Advanced List (http://code.google.com/p/flextoolbox/downloads/list).

  • Preventing disabling of check box - item okay in MIGO

    Dear all,
    In the MIGO transaction - during goods receipt for subcontractor material, when the item (incoming) is checked as item okay - automatically the child material (Material sent to subcontractor) is also activated thereby to enable 543 movement.
    Unfortunately some of the users are disabling the check box (for the material sent to the subcontractor). This prevents depletion of stock from the subcontractor but inflates the stock of the incoming material.
    Is there any way - either by authorisation check to prevent users disabling the check box or other methods?
    Experts suggestion is required in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    M.M

    Hi Magesh,
    it is possible. use Badi enhancement
    MB_MIGO_BADI goto
    IF_EX_MB_MIGO_BADI~POST_DOCUMENT
    tell your abaper to put the logic like
    parent ID and subcomponent ID need to select
    if either of two is not selected
    then error message will prompt not to save the GR doc since subcomponent is unselected.
    reference field EKPO check PSTYP
    hope this help you.
    regards,

  • How to disable a lead selected item in a radio button group ?

    Hi,
    I have a radio button group and there are entries to create radio buttons dynamically. means there is only one radio button group in the UI design and in runtime I will be having two radio buttons (For ex: Yes and No ) . Now If I want to disable either Yes or No radio button, I am unable to do so. because If I disable the radio button group it disables both.  So, I can have lead selected item for ex: Yes which I want to disable. I want to know specifically how this Yes button to be disabled by taking lead selected index item.
    Please help.
    Thanks
    Praveen

    Try setting the radio button value of the lead selected button to abap_false/space.

  • User EXIT to suppress or disable  "Conditions" tab at item level in va02

    my requirement is that when a user press on condotion tab he should not be able to see pricing detail data.

    mandy

    Hi Mandy,
    I think you can do through SHD0 Transaction by creating transaction variants.
    If not possible there could be some customization from SPRO, consult with your functional guy.
    Check this enhancement MV45AFZZ
    PERFORM USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION, I think in this perform you may disable, check this

  • Is there a way to enable/disable a tabular form item based on the value of a second item?

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a tabular form based on a collection.   The column c050(maps to f30) will be either Y/N.  If it is Y, then I would like to enable column c024( maps to f24) (which happens to be a radio button based on lov).  If the value of c050 = N, then disable c024.   There are potentially many rows, and the item c024 would only be enable/disabled for the specific row.   So if row 1 has c050=Y and row 2 has C050=N then row 1 c024 is enabled, and row 2 c024 is disabled.  Hope that makes sense.
    I have created a dynamic action called enable/disable HMS fields.
    event=CHANGE
    selection type = jquery selector
    jquery selector = input[name='f30']
    condition EQUAL TO
    value Y
    true action1 - enable, jquery selector, input[name='f24']
    true action 2 - alert, You have added an HMS Species.   There may be additional data to enter.  thanks
    false action1 - disable jquery selector, input[name='f24']
    false action2 - alert, no hms worries.
    The alerts in both cases show properly...but nothing seems to happen to f24.....what am I doing wrong?
    thanks

    Agh! This is the first time you mention this is a radio button!  That changes things a lot! As you can see, the format is different (f24_0001_0001) than what we have discussed (f24_0001).
    Radio buttons have their own quirks.  My bad, I should have asked what you had.  But since you said your original selectors on input were working I just thought these were text fields or something like that.
    How about you change it to a drop down list just so that you can see all work?  And fully understand it.
    Then you can work out the radio button option.
    If that doesn't get you there... I'm going to ask you setup an example in apex.oracle.com and give me credentials to log in and take a look.
    I could re-try the js on my side with a radio but it will take some time.
    So just to be clear... f30 is a drop down and f24 is a radio?
    See, this line:
    $x_disableItem("f24_" + row, true);
    Is NEVER going to find the radio buttons because it's missing the 3rd 0001 and 0002 (how many options do you have?)
    So perhaps you try it like this:
    $x_disableItem("f24_" + row + '_0001', true);
    $x_disableItem("f24_" + row + '_0002', true);
    ... keep going for the options...
    Do the same for the false of course.
    But I think this needs a better approach if you'll have radio buttons.  I just need to work it out.
    Ok, go try things...
    Thanks

  • Disable selection of certain items in ListView

    I have a ListView with different items.
    For most items I like the default multiple selection but for some items I would like to disable selection completely.
    I tried disabling the cell while it displays a non selectable item, but this only disables selection from direct events on the cell. I can still select it by clicking on an item above an then shift-clicking on an item below.
    I also tried to set the cell as empty when displaying a non selectable item. This fixes the issue with shift selection described above, but i can still select the cell by selecting an item next to it and pressing the respective arrow key.
    Does anybody have an idea?
    Thanks
    l2p

    How about this?
