Question: This might sound crazy but I have a client still using TM6-billing for MS-DOS, all of a sudden it started archiving all new data, any ideas, anybody out there who can help, will to spend $.Thanks. Roger.

Troubleshooting Steps

1.

Check the Configuration

Verify that the TM6-billing settings for data archiving have not been accidentally enabled. Check the following options:- System > Configuration > Data- System > Configuration > Invoices- System > Configuration > Receivables- System > Configuration > Statements2.

Review recent changes

Determine if any system updates or user actions have occurred that may have triggered the archiving process. Check for:- Software installations or updates- New user permissions or roles- Changes to system files or database settings3.

Disable Archiving

If the archiving settings are not the cause, temporarily disable the archiving process to see if it resolves the issue. Go to System > Configuration > Data and uncheck the "Enable Archive" option.4.

Check for File Permissions

Ensure that the TM6-billing software has sufficient permissions to access and modify the data files. Check the file permissions on the TM6 data folder and subfolders.5.

Backup and Restore

If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider backing up the TM6 data and restoring it to a fresh installation. This will reset any corrupted settings or configurations.
