Replication Of Old Documents Issue - Question?

Hello All,

Okay I need some advice. We have a ticketing database which we have users work on both local and server. The issue we face every once and a while is someone, who hasn’t replicated in a long time (months) will replicate and all the old data they had on their local copy will be uploaded to the server. This causes issues with our scheduled agents and other functions, plus loading the database with old documents.

Now these documents are not flagged as dups, as their orginal counterparts were moved into an archieve DB some time ago.

Currently we have to go in the DB and manually clear out the old documents. We look at the last date modified and remove them that way. It’s been working, but there must be a way we can avoid having to do this by using the settings in the REplication Settings.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
