To Create New Data Files
1. Open the File menu and choose Maintenance.
2. To create new data files click Rebuild.
The Rebuild Data Files window appears. On first opening the check box all the check boxes are selected. Selecting an option indicates that you do not want to create new data files, and want to retain the existing files.
3. To indicate which parts of Sage Line 50 you want to create new data files for, clear the relevant check box(es).
If you clear customer or supplier accounts, Sage Line 50 automatically clears transactions. If you clear nominal accounts, this also clears transactions and chart of accounts. If you clear stock records this clears stock transactions.
4. To create new data files for the areas indicated (the cleared areas), click OK.
Sage Line 50 asks you to confirm that you want to rebuild your data files.
5. To rebuild your files, click Yes, otherwise click No.
If you opted to rebuild your Nominal Ledger accounts, before the rebuilding takes place, a message appears asking whether or not you wish to use the default nominal structure. To use the default nominal structure, click Yes, if not click No.
If you are rebuilding any of your ledger files, e.g. Customer or Supplier Accounts or Retain Transactions, Sage Line 50 asks you to confirm the start of your financial year. Enter the appropriate month and year and click Yes to continue.
