A user reports that a document has a retention label applied, but the document is still being deleted after the retention period. You investigate and find that a retention policy is also applied to the document's location. What should you do to determine why the document was deleted?

Check the audit log to see who manually deleted the document.

Use Policy lookup in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal to see which policies apply to the document and their precedence.

Recreate the retention label with a longer retention period.

Review the retention label's settings to confirm the retention period is correct.

Fabrikam has offices in the EU and the US. The EU office must retain all customer contracts for 10 years, while the US office must retain contracts for 7 years. Both offices use the same SharePoint tenant. You need to apply the correct retention label automatically to contracts based on the office location. What should you configure?

Create a single adaptive scope for all users and configure a retention policy with a 7-year period.

Create two adaptive policy scopes, one for EU users and one for US users, and assign each scope to a separate auto-apply retention label policy.

Create a single retention label with a 10-year period and apply it to all contracts in the tenant.

Publish two retention labels to all users and instruct EU users to manually apply the 10-year label and US users to apply the 7-year label.
