Data Retention:

Data retention has been implemented for the transaction tables of the below data sources.

1.Semester Assessment Test - (semester_exam_result_trans)

2.Periodic Assessment Test - (periodic_exam_result_trans)

3.Diksha Summary rollup - (diksha_content_trans)

4.CRC - (crc_inspection_trans,crc_location_trans)

If the data replay is initiated for the data older than the retention period, within 5 days data re-emission is allowed.
