Thanks Darren

I just hoped there was a pretier way to manage retentions with groups as oppose 
to creating several hundreds additional client entries.
But I guess that's the way ....

Sorry, since retention is only a property of the client instance, that's
how you have to do it.

Added complexity, but it doesn't cost you a license.

I suppose you could run a script to change the retention just before a
group runs, but that seems too fragile.
