Overview

Reward expiration is the date and time after which a reward can no longer be redeemed. You can set expiration when you configure a reward, and you can set, change, or clear it on an issued reward from View Reward. When a reward expires, it moves to Expired and cannot be redeemed. Expired Reward Bank collectibles are hidden from the Redemption Center.
Expiration you set on a reward in Flow Builder is used instead of expiration set on the reward supplier, or on the Reward Bank Collectible Reward. Changing reward expiration related settings does not update rewards that have already been earned. To change the date on an issued reward, use View Reward.

Use this when the supplier is not part of a component. Any standalone supplier in Rewards can have a Reward Expiration.
