Set an expiry time for commands

When you send the "Delete all device data" or "Delete only work data" command to a device, the device must connect to 
BlackBerry UEM
 for the command to complete. If the device is unable to connect to 
BlackBerry UEM
, the command remains in pending status and the device is not removed from 
BlackBerry UEM
 unless you manually remove it. Alternatively, you can configure 
BlackBerry UEM
 to automatically remove devices when the commands do not complete after a specified amount of time.
  1. On the menu bar, click 
    Settings > General settings > Delete command expiry
    .
  2. For one or both of 
    Delete all device data
     and 
    Delete only work data
    , select 
    Automatically remove the device if the command has not completed
    .
  3. In the 
    Command expiration
     field, type the number of days after which the command expires and the device is automatically removed from 
    BlackBerry UEM
  4. Click 
    Save
    .
