In order to provide a permanent record of a member's interactions with your credit union, Collections Trackers are retained on the system for the life of the membership, and even get moved to closed account files should the membership/account be closed.
All other Tracker Types are subject to the retention schedule outlined in Tool #277 Configure Tracker Types. Most of these are CU-defined, with a few exceptions for standard system Trackers:
