GETTING STARTED


Saving documents in an archive to free up space
You can create folders and put documents in them to organize various databases, but this doesn’t decrease the size of the database.

Archiving frees up space and improves the performance of any database by storing documents in another database when they are old or not in use anymore. After specifying which documents you want stored, you can have Notes archive automatically on a schedule, or you can archive manually.

For non-mail databases, you can specify the following:
