# HoldUseRetentionPolicy

A Boolean value that specifies whether holds are applied to documents using a retention policy. You can set this parameter to `true` only if your Documentum installation supports retention policies through the Retention Policy Administrator. Specify the name of the retention policy to use by setting the configuration parameter `HoldRetentionPolicy`.

The default value of this parameter is `false`, which means that the connector prevents modifications to a document by modifying the document’s attributes. The connector can also prevent changes by modifying the document’s Access Control List (ACL). To control these changes, use the configuration parameters `HoldUpdateACL` and `HoldUseFreeze`.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | TaskName or FetchTasks
Example: | `HoldUseRetentionPolicy=True`
