Housekeeping

Housekeeping is a special task that runs each night, which recalculates many of the values in the database. For instance, the "Days on Loan" is updated when this task runs. Some aspects of Housekeeping only run every weekend but you can manually run these when required by altering the settings (described below).

·Open the Scheduler Interface and click the settings icon on the Housekeeping row:

·The Catalogue Enrichment settings box will open with 4 options; Clean up Classifications, Clean up Keywords, Optimise Photos and Reset Options.

The settings that can be changed for the Housekeeping task are described below:

Setting	Description
Clean up Classifications	This is a task that only runs on Sunday by default, re-calculating the Classification dropdown list and tidying them up. Checking this option will force this to be performed the next time housekeeping is run.
Clean up Keywords	This is the task that currently only runs on Saturday, recalculating the Keywords dropdown list and tidying them up. Checking this option will force this to be performed the next time housekeeping is run.
Optimise Photos	Optimises how the photos are stored in the DB. Normally this is only run at the request of MLS.
Reset Options	Switch to reset these tickboxes so they will only apply to the next Housekeeping run (rather than all further runs).

·Click OK to the box when changes have been made.

The configured settings will take effect next time the task runs and this can be configured to run on a regular basis. To force the task to run through, return to the scheduler interface and click the Run Now icon on the Housekeeping row.
