• Key Concepts: 
  Start of retention time is a feature of SAP's Data Protection and Privacy (CA-DPP) component. It is used to define the start date of the retention period for data stored in SAP systems. This allows organizations to ensure that data is only stored for as long as necessary, and that it is deleted after the retention period has expired. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Start of retention time can be set up in the SAP system by defining a start date for the retention period. This can be done manually or through an automated process. Once the start date has been set, the system will automatically delete any data that has been stored for longer than the defined retention period. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to ensure that the start of retention time is set correctly, as this will determine how long data is stored in the system. It is also important to regularly review and update the start date, as this will ensure that data is not stored for longer than necessary.
