Key Features of Bulk Scan Removal

  • Improved Performance: Deleting outdated scan records regularly ensures optimal page loading times and smoother reporting.
  • Download Before Deleting: Ensure you save any necessary scan records to your email, computer, or servers before deleting them, as this process is irreversible.

Filtering Options

  • To help you precisely target the scan records you wish to remove, this feature provides several filters:
  • Date Received: Filter scans based on the date they were recorded (recommended).
  • Service Used: Narrow down scans by the service generating them.
  • User: Filter records by the user who created them.
  • Scan Status: Choose scans based on their status (valid/invalid/error).
  • Devices: Specify the device used for recording the scans.
