Backup Recommendations
If additional BackOffice or third-party programs are configured with your POS-Register, it is recommended to save backups for no more than 15 days to optimize system performance.
System Performance Impact
Storing a large amount of data may affect system performance.
The more days of data stored, the greater the potential impact on performance.
Nightly Purge Process
