Performing Document Cleanups

Performing Document Cleanups

Introduction

At this screen, you can cleanup unnecessary documents in Exact Synergy Enterprise. The actions that you can perform are:

  • archiving documents
  • archiving and moving documents to a different database or server, or
  • deleting only documents with attachments or images.

When you delete documents, the files linked to the corresponding documents with an active status will also be deleted. However, the documents are not deleted, archived, and moved immediately. Instead, they will only be deleted, archived, and moved  when the Exact.Jobs.Documents background job is executed. For more information, see Background Jobs for Exact Synergy Enterprise.
