Description
Re: Business issue I-021
The question has been raised as to what to do with the Withdrawn records in My Business Registry . My Staff Business Registry page after a future dated filing that would have created an entity have been withdrawn (Incorporation Application, Amalgamation, Continuation In).

This has been discussed with Amber and she has given us two options, we are free to choose which option we pursue based on which is the best option / least effort.
1) Automatically delete these Withdrawn filing entries after 90 days
2) Implement a filter on the page to show/not show Withdrawn entries
- Default view = don't show Withdrawn entries
- Filter enabled - show Withdrawn entries
**Spike Request:**
Please investigate both options and provide estimates for both.
Also provide any recommendations or considerations to allow us to choose the best option

Research direction
Start with the My Business Registry and My Staff Business Registry page behavior described in the issue, then trace how Withdrawn filings are represented and handled. Compare automatic deletion after 90 days with a default-hidden filter, documenting estimates, trade-offs, and a recommendation; done means both options and considerations are recorded.
