Expiration Time (new features)

We have started using Expiration Time in our environment. But as it is known Expiration Time only runs for primary transactions. This means half of our overall daily transactions. Also for our subsidiaries we have a separate Plex where almost 100% of the transactions are secondary because they come from the primary Plex.
