  • Purging removes inactive maintenance records and transactions from the records of a company
  • This reduces the size of the company and improves performance
  • You can perform a purge at any time
  • We especially recommend purging if you experience performance issues
    • Your company will increase in size over time and purging may become a necessity in order to maintain program performance
  • See How to Purge data for instructions

Program performance is dependent on many factors. Some server and network systems are capable of supporting large data file sizes with little impact on performance. For more information regarding performance issues, see Performance issues on a standalone or network.
