Document Storage Management Setup

MoversSuite Administration > Administration > Document Storage Management

 

Document Storage Management Setup is used for an effective management of your documents databases. Under this admin feature, use the Archive Documents feature to archive legacy documents from orders of your choice, present in your main documents database.

 

Moreover, if you want to permanently remove documents, you can use the Purge Documents feature to delete them.

 

Of note, the archiving and purging features affect documents associated to orders with active storage billing records."

 

Moving or removing data does not remove the memory allocated within your system. So, it is recommended to shrink your databases after archiving or purging. Shedding the load off the main documents database helps you easily perform operations over it and speeds up the backup and upgrade processes.
