• Oldest - the date of the oldest transaction for this group.
• Max Age - the maximum age of the oldest transaction for this group.

• Records - the number of transaction records for this group.
• Percentage - the percentage transaction records for this group of the total number of transaction records.

System log records associated with a transaction are normally purged based on the standard data retention policy, as long as the transaction had already been purged. If not, it must wait for the transaction to be purged. If there are existing old transactions, then it is possible that the related system log entries will show the Max Age being greater than the Policy Max Age.
