Retention Policys
It's another name clash, but in all fairness the old ones (configurable via the EAC) did not "retain" anything. On the contrary, they were only used to delete/archive items, which is kinda the opposite of retention. The new ones, configurable via the SCC, act across the service and do actual retention.

Just to be clear, when you say SCC you are talking about Security and Complianse Center in Office 365.
But your answer is properly why we are not on the same page on this, I did not know the difference as you pointed out.
We are going to set it in the SCC so it will be retained as we want it to be. Thanks for your input.
Yes, SCC equals the Security and Compliance Center. And here's an article that explains the retention policies there in detail, including comparisson with Exchange retention policies: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Overview-of-retention-policies-5e377752-700d-4870-9b6d-12bfc12d2423
Hi Vasil,
Can we use Retention policies in SCC to retain data instead of using a feature like Litigation Hold?
You can, read the article I linked to above.
- Thanks. Somehow it requires a P2 license or P1+ Exchange Online Archive license.
