Microsoft Purview | New eDiscovery Hold reports

Coming soon: For Microsoft Purview, we will release a tenant-wide Hold report in eDiscovery (Premium).

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 93268 and Roadmap ID 93269.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out mid-April 2024 and expect to complete by end of April 2024.

General Availability (GCC, GCCH, DoD): We will begin rolling out late May 2024 and expect to complete by late June 2024.

[How this will affect your organization:]

The Hold report in eDiscovery (Premium) will let users with eDiscovery Administrator and eDiscovery Manager permissions access a built-in report with information on all hold policies associated with eDiscovery cases in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal. This includes eDiscovery holds associated with eDiscovery (Standard) and eDiscovery (Premium) cases. The Hold report lists all locations that are part of a tenant’s hold policies (whether enabled or disabled). The Hold report currently doesn’t show custodian association for each data source but will show the location.

Your organization must have an organization subscription that supports Purview eDiscovery (Premium) to generate and access the Hold report. eDiscovery Managers can only view Hold reports related to the cases they are a member of.

The Hold report will be available under the Reports tab in eDiscovery (Premium):

Use the Group option to group eDiscovery holds from eDiscovery (Standard) cases using group by Case Type. Use Customize options to select case type options and display Standard or Premium (case type column not shown here):

[What you need to do to prepare:]
