Database Maintenance: General Information

Managing the amount of storage your site uses can help keep it running as fast as possible. In addition, once you go over the storage included with your site you will be charged for any extra space you use.

This page is designed to help you understand and manage storage on your site.

Your site storage can be affected by a few different factors:

• The size of the database. This is made up of all your records including stuff like sales and bills, customer and supplier records, product lists, and audit tracking entries.
• Your attached files. These are the images you attach to MYOB Acumatica documents, such as images of inventory items, pdf copies of supplier invoices, scans of expense receipts, etc.
• The number of tenants and snapshots you use. Each tenant and snapshot duplicates all or part of your database and can also duplicate file attachments.

While it varies depending on how you use , both the database and file attachments typically use significant amounts of storage.

Monitoring Your Storage Usage

To check how much storage you’re using, and what your storage limit is, go to the Licence Maintenance screen (SM201510) and open the Entitlements tab.

The Storage Space entry shows your storage limit, your usage, and how much you have available. This includes your database and file attachments.
