In computing terms, housekeeping is referred to manual or
sometimes automated process where the computer is cleaned-up to optimize its
performance. Housekeeping commonly involves removing the archived logs and
users activities, backing up data and etc. The housekeeping rule applies to the TCMS V2 software too as the software might respond slower or lag if it is
carrying too heavy a load of transaction data. This is particularly observed
while generating the Attendance sheet. It is recommended to transfer the
transaction data from the Attendance Sheet into the History folder once every
3-6 months to attain optimum performance for the TCMS V2 software.
To perform housekeeping for the TCMS V2 software:
1. In
Attendance Sheet, click “To History”.

2. Select
specific users or select All to choose the users involved to perform the
transfer. Define the date range of the transaction data to be transferred
to the History folder and click “To History” to initiate the transfer.
Upon completing the transfer, all the previous transaction
data will be only available in the History page.
Besides performing housekeeping on the TCMS V2 software, a
routine maintenance on the computer will prolong its usage lifetime and mitigate
against the gradual performance loss. Below are a few examples to keep the
computer in tiptop condition:
- Update
the computer with the up to date Anti-Virus data files and scan for virus
regularly.
- Scan
and remove Spyware/Adware.
- Delete
temporary files and browser cache.
- Perform
Disc Defragmenter on the system volume.
