Can I clean up older Company Files - Account Right
Since the inception of regular product upgrades to Account Right, it no longer creates an older version of the Company file in my Account Right Library (My Files are not on line, they are local)
Refer to attached image as an example.
I need to know if it is safe to delete the older Company files.
I have files with postfix from (Old v2020.3) through to (Old 2023.9) and the last one is (Old 2099.9)
I have to assume that unless I need to open up an older version of the company, I should not need to keep it.
I also ensure that I keep historical data whenever I roll over a financial year.
Interested to know what others have done with these files.
Regards.
Hi nooch1960,
Thanks for sharing the details and screenshot! Yes, f you no longer need to open the file in that older version and you have a reliable backup of your current ledger, it’s safe to delete those “(Old v… )” copies from your local library. They aren’t used by the upgraded file. As a precaution, many keep the most recent pre‑upgrade copy for a while or take a fresh backup before deleting.
You can also visit our help page Manage libraries for more information.
