Perform Maintenance

By performing maintenance on a file, you can clear out unused accounts and user setting information.

To perform maintenance on a Working Papers file:

  1. In Working Papers, open the file where you want to perform maintenance.
  2. From the ribbon, click Tools | Maintenance. The Maintenance Wizard displays.
  3. Select the maintenance routines that you want to perform.

    Routine Description
    Remove All Unused Accounts

    Removes all accounts that have no opening balance, no activity, no current or prior balances, no budget or forecast numbers, and no transactions or adjusting entries.

    Manage Document Links

    Deletes files found in the client directory, but not in the Document Manager, and/or copy externally-linked documents into the client directory. All .doc, .xls, .pdf, .txt, .tiff, .ppt, .jpg, and .mdb files found in the client directory are displayed and can be deleted.

    Push To Cloud Pushes the engagement data of the current file to its entity on Caseware Cloud.
