Managing user accounts and company files > Servicing your company file > Optimising your company file
Over time, your company file will grow considerably in size. As you enter transactions, then remove or purge them, the file will have unused areas that once contained these transactions. These unused areas can affect the efficiency with which operations are performed in the company file. We recommend that you use the Optimisation Assistant to remove the unused areas in the company file and keep your accounting software running efficiently.
caution : Single-user access required
Optimising a company file requires single-user access. For more information, see Single-user file locking for special tasks.
caution : Optimising multi-user company files
If multiple users are accessing a shared company file on a host computer, optimise the company file on the host.
