Deleting Documents

Why this exists

Greens Drive is designed to protect important documents from accidental deletion. Most users cannot directly delete files to prevent the loss of critical operational records, financial documents, and guest information. However, we recognize that outdated or duplicate files need to be removed to keep the system organized and efficient. This policy ensures document security while providing controlled methods for authorized users to remove unnecessary files.
