The Company File Check & Repair Tool
The Company File Check & Repair scans your company file and attempts to fix any errors caused by corrupted or orphaned files.
This tool can be opened in Sage 50 Accounting or in the Sage 50 Accounting folder on the Windows Start menu. The Company File Check & Repair also automatically scans your company's data when you upgrade Sage 50 Accounting or restore your company from a backup file.
The Company File Check & Repair operates in two modes: Basic and Advanced. Both modes remove corrupted files, but the Advanced check also removes any orphaned files it detects.
Note: The Advanced mode is a more detailed scan and may take several minutes to complete if you have a large file.
When You Upgrade or Restore
Sage 50 Accounting runs the Company File Check & Repair Basic tool prior to upgrading your database to ensure that your company can be converted. If there are any complicated tasks required to complete the upgrade, the Advanced tool will run automatically.
