Filing Customer Orders

This supporting function is used to file customer orders, deleted orders, customer invoices, and transferred batch orders. It is also used to clear old records from the files.

By copying information to another library, it can then be copied to external storage media such as magnetic tape or CD-ROM. After the information is saved, it can be deleted from the hard disk to increase system performance.
