Examples

Soft-delete entries that are delete protected, without deletion date and older than 30 days and entries that are not delete protected, without deletion date and older than 90 days

IncludeProtected = True
EntryOlderThanDaysIfUnprotected = 30
EntryOlderThanDaysIfProtected = 90
EntryDeleteDateOlderThanDays = -1

Soft-delete entries when the deletion date is reached

IncludeProtected = True or False (as you like)
EntryOlderThanDaysIfUnprotected = -1
EntryOlderThanDaysIfProtected = -1
EntryDeleteDateOlderThanDays= 0

Soft-delete entries when the deletion date is reached or entry is older than 45 days

IncludeProtected = True or False (as you like)
EntryOlderThanDaysIfUnprotected = 45
EntryOlderThanDaysIfProtected = 45
EntryDeleteDateOlderThanDays= 0

Use Case	IncludeProtected	EntryOlderThanDays IfUnprotected	EntryOlderThanDays IfProtected	EntryDeleteDate OlderThanDays
DAVID default	False	-1	-1	14
Older than n days	True	30	90	-1
Delete date reached	True	-1	-1	0
Delete date reached or older than n days	True	45	45	0

Logic: IncludeProtected AND (EntryOlderThanDaysIfUnprotected OR EntryOlderThanDaysIfProtected OR EntryDeleteDateOlderThanDays)
