Path: Other > Technician Maintenance
This mobileTMA window is used to delete a technician's data files (config and .sdf), to move the data file, or to compact the database.
The delete function is used in cases where a technician is no longer employed or no longer uses the handheld device. If you delete the .sdf and config files for a user, you release valuable space in memory.
Note: Technicians can also delete their own files when they are logged in to mobileTMA; however, this is not advisable. If they tap Yes on the Are you Sure? popup, the files are deleted, and the application closes automatically. Technician's use of this option is not recommended.
The Move Data File command is typically used to transfer large data files to a storage card. It can also be used to move the files to a different folder on the handheld device if necessary, but this would be an unusual situation.
The Compact Database command is not used frequently. It is a one-time operation that condenses the data file. If you observe that the data file is growing very large when there is a limited amount of data in the file, use this command to reduce the file size and more accurately reflect the amount of data.
