MRM Is Set Up in a Series of Steps

Messaging records management is set up in a series of steps. The most common causes of confusion and rework when setting up MRM are:

  • Trying to get an aspect of MRM to work before earlier steps in the setup process have been completed.

  • Not completing the MRM setup process. For example, the most common MRM setup error is not completing the last step in the setup process: scheduling the managed folder assistant to run.
