You can change an existing retention policy in Exchange Online by changing the name of the policy, and by adding or removing retention tags.

To change a retention policy, follow these steps:

1. Select Manage My Organization > Mail Control > Retention Policies.
2. In the Retention Policies list, select the retention policy you want to change, and click Details.
3. If applicable, change the name in the * Name field.
   This name appears in the list of retention policies and appears in the drop-down menu when you link a retention policy to a mailbox in the Exchange Control Panel.
4. Under Retention Tags, do one of the following:
   • To add a retention tag, click Add. Select a retention tag, and click Add.
     Note   You can add multiple tags by pressing the CTRL key and clicking each tag that you want to add to the retention policy. After you make your selections, click Add.
     When you’re finished adding retention tags, click OK.
   • To remove a retention tag, select the tag and click Remove.
     Note   You can also select multiple tags to remove by pressing the CTRL key and clicking each tag that you want to remove. After you make your selections, click Remove.
5. Click Save to keep your changes to the retention policy.

Run the Managed Folder Assistant

After you change a retention policy, it has to be processed by the Managed Folder Assistant before the change takes effect. In Exchange Online, the Managed Folder Assistant is configured to process all mailboxes in a cloud-based organization once every seven days. You can wait until the Managed Folder Assistant processes mailboxes or you can force the Managed Folder Assistant to process a mailbox immediately.
