Updating Data Structures

Within the Help > About TransActPOS, the Data Version of the site's installation is indicated within the Data Ver.: value. At times, the continued development of the TransActPOS application suite may require an update to the inherent structure of the systems database.  The following procedure shows how the database structural update is completed using the TARepair/Update feature.

1. Repair
The Repair option examines the integrity of the data within the expected data version. If the expected Data Version is not present, this option will not be available, thus requiring an Update.

Update

2. Update
The Update updates the Data Version to the TARepair's current data version and then processes a portion of the repair process.
 

TARepair Structure Awareness

 
The TARepair application will automatically access the Data Version and only allow the Repair option, if applicable. 
 
For instance, if a View is missing for within the data structure of the DBC,the system will present the "View Missing" notification and then upon clicking on the OK, the application will proceed to the Select Operation screen.  Within the Select Operation screen, only the Update will will be available for selection.
