+#### Minimum age
+
+Autoscan does not check whether scan requests received by triggers exist on the file system.
+Therefore, to make sure a file exists before it reaches the targets, you should set a minimum age.
+The minimum age delays the scan from being send to the targets after it has been added to the queue by a trigger.
+The default minimum age is set at 10 minutes to prevent common synchronisation issues.
