Interruptions to your computer due to a power failure, a power surge or a user mistakenly turning off the , for example, can damage a company file.
If you experience an interruption, as a safeguard, we suggest that you use the MYOB BusinessBasics Optimization Assistant to optimize your company file. Although the Optimization Assistant is designed to make your company file more efficient, it also is capable of fixing certain types of company file corruption. We recommend that you use the Optimization Assistant on a regular basis to keep your company file operating at its peak.
You can find the Optimization Assistant in the MYOB BusinessBasics folder that was created in the Programs folder on your Start menu when you installed MYOB BusinessBasics.
If you're able to optimize the file without errors, we recommend that you then use the MYOB BusinessBasics Data Verification Utility to be sure your company file is in its "healthiest" form. You can find the Verify Company File command under the File menu when you're working with BusinessBasics. For more information about optimizing and verifying your company file, see Maintaining your company file.
