This program is used to verify that all the files within the Point-of-Sale database are intact and that no corruption has occurred. This program is normally run automatically by a Timed Operation. However, it is a vital routine to carry out after a hardware or software fault has occurred.
If any errors are found, or any files have exceeded their pre-determined percentage full capacity, the details are printed to a log report which should be studied carefully.
