In order to help you maintain your database we've included utilities module. The following provides a brief explanation of each of the items included in the utilities package.
Import Data and Export Data: designed to assist you in importing and exporting data into the database tables included in Built for Sales.
Compress Databases: this utility should be run at regular intervals, especially if you delete records often. When you delete a record in a database, it simply removes the data from the data table, but it does not reclaim the space. By compressing the databases, you can reclaim this lost space and help keep your database running smoothly.
Hidden Databases: The list of databases provided in this section are hidden in the Built for Sales modules. We have made them accessible in the utilities module to make it easier for you to troubleshoot problems that may occur. Lost data segments could develop if you enter or delete data incorrectly. This could lead to problems with the way your application functions. If lost data segments do develop, they will more than likely be in these hidden databases. From Utilities you go in and delete these lost records.
Troubleshooting Log: We've also included a trouble-shooting log. This log can be used to track problems that may occur in your database or with your computer system in general. It allows you to log problems and bugs you encounter with your system and record the solution for fixing the problem. This way, if a problem occurs again, you can refer to the log to see what fixed the problem the last time it occurred.
