Hi all, I work for a manufacturing company and I am doing our reviewing 
retentions.  We have a 10 year warranty for our product.  Our sales 
packets (has the orders, correspondence, customer documents, payment 
records, etc) and contract bid documents are currently retained 10 years, 
in support of our 10 year warranty.  The issue I have with it is the sales 
packets have payment records that are retained just 7 years (in my State, 
the law is 6 years for contracts, therefore the reason for 7 years for 
payment records). 

Does anyone see a problem with keeping the sales packets & contract bid 
docs for 10 years, even though the payment records are retained 7 years 
(the payment records are filed with the sales packets/bid docs)?  Thanks 
for the help, Susan
