SALESFORCE RECYCLE BIN RETENTION


Retention of Salesforce Recycle Bin (SRB) in Enterprises is paramount for ultimate systems performance and functionality. As a software provider, this is the foundation of our services offering related to Salesforce Release Management, Salesforce Data Backup and Recovery, and Salesforce Security Solutions. Because Salesforce Recycle Bin (SRB) data retention policies are regularly overlooked until a need arises; we will explain the benefits of SRB and who it serves.

Simply stated, Salesforce Recycle Bin (SRB) is a repository of deleted records within Salesforce and is the first line of defense for data protection and recovery. SRB enables users to restore deleted records with recovery periods varying from 15 to 45 days depending on the best practices your organization opts to use. These periods are determined by both the Salesforce retention policy and data retention rules set in the organization. For recovery purposes, it is most effective to maintain the longest recovery period possible, using a maximum 45 day rule.

When utilizing SRB, organizations can easily restore deleted records quickly and efficiently. This important Salesforce solution allows users access to deleted Salesforce records which can then be recovered quickly and reliably. By restoring deleted records, users are able to continue sales, complete tasks, or address customer queries that they would not be able to do if the record was missing or permanently deleted. SRB helps to provide data security and minimize data loss, ensuring operations continue without interruption, eliminating downtime delays, and resulting customer satisfaction.

A release management solution for Salesforce can further assist in streamlining your organization’s SRB policy. By utilizing this solution, our Enterprise clients are able to configure their data retention rules and adjust the settings to match their desired recovery window. Release management solutions also allow administrators to track and trace the actions of users and monitor data deletion. This comprehensive overview of deleted records adds an additional layer of visibility and risk mitigation to the SRB processes.

Our clients have found SRB to be an essential tool in their Salesforce platform that supports the security and backup management of their data. As such, it is important to begin leveraging this tool’s capabilities as soon as it is available, to ensure your organization is protected from data loss. While not as comprehensive as a full data recovery solution, SRB can be a great supplement to provide adequate data retention for your Salesforce platform.

By partnering with us for Salesforce Release Management, Salesforce Data Backup and Recovery, and Salesforce Security Solutions, organizations can have the robust SRB retention policies they need with the added benefits of release management and full data recovery solutions. Contact us today and begin taking advantage of the full benefits of Salesforce Recycle Bin Retention.
