15.7 Archiving Transactions

The Archive Transaction feature allows you to archive inactive transactions prior to a specified date.
This date defaults to the value specified when you enabled this option on the Options screen. For more
information on enabling this option, please refer to the

Options Screen

topic.

Only inactive transactions are eligible for archive. These are transactions that no longer impact the
current inventory. For instance, if you added a quantity of 10 to a specific item number and all of those
have since been removed, the initial add transaction is inactive and will be archived if it occurred before
the date specified.

Archiving is useful to keep your database running quickly by storing unused information.

Archiving Transactions:

1. From

the

Main screen, click Tools > Archive Transactions. The Archive Transactions screen

appears.

2. Set

the

Transaction Date to the date before which inactive transactions will be archived, or leave

it at the default date.

3. Click

OK to archive the selected inactive transactions or click Cancel to close the screen without

archiving any data.

4. If desired, you can run the Transaction History (Archived) Report to review the archived

transactions.
