You use the options on the Advanced Company Settings tab to specify how long to keep history about database changes for each Sage 100 Contractor company you manage. Details older than the retention period you specify are removed during nightly maintenance.
You can remove all database history for a selected company by clicking the [Purge History Tables] button.
Caution! Purging history tables and reducing the retention time for database history affects the information available in the 7-7 User Activity Report and in the individual record histories in Sage 100 Contractor.
To set a retention period for database history:
- Click Advanced Settings > Advanced Company Settings.
- Select the company for which you are setting the history retention period.
- Select the number of days for which to retain history.
- Click [Save Changes].
