How to Remove Completed Activities
1. First thing you want to do is backup you data in
case you do not properly remove the completed activities (File
| Backup).
2.
Once you have backed up your database, you want to go into
database maintenance: File | Administration | Database
Maintenance:
3. Once the Database Maintenance dialog box
opens, click on the Data Clean-up tab. Check the box
next to 'Cleared activities older than'.
The default time span is 60 days, and is generally a good rule
of thumb. Of course, you can modify this if you desire.
Once you have decided on the number of days, click the
Remove Selected Items button, and you will see a status
bar in the middle of your screen as ACT! cleans out your old
cleared activities. If this is the first time you have
ever done this, and you have been using activities on a
regular basis, you should see a speed increase in your ACT!,
especially in the calendar areas.
As always, if
you should have any questions regarding this Tip, or anything
else involving ACT!, please call the ACT! Specialists of
CRM
Coaching at 440-944-ACT1.
