Batch archiving

Batch archiving allows you to archive several projects at once. Using the filters, you can select projects that have not been edited for a long time and thus clean up your database. You should use this function sporadically.

Change username for login

In the single-user version, this button is necessary to set the user name to the new Windows user name of the new computer when moving computers.

Execute SQL command
(only active when logged in as XTADMIN)

You can use XTAdmin to execute SQL commands on your database. Clicking on the button opens a dialog box where you can enter the SQL command. Normally, this function should not be used and is intended exclusively for database maintenance.

Update DB structure
(only active when logged in as XTADMIN)

The database structure is automatically updated during a software update. This button is only needed if errors occur during the update. Please contact our support team before using this function.

Set patch
level (only active when logged in as XTADMIN)

The patch level is also set automatically. The same procedure applies here as for the database structure. Please contact our support team before using this function.

Set
server IP (only active when logged in as XTADMIN)

If you set a server IP here, the Xpert-Timer clients check every few seconds whether the database connection to the server is still active. By entering this, you can intercept error messages that could cause Xpert-Timer to hang when the connection is lost. You would then have to shut down the program via the Task Manager.

Recover deleted project

If you have accidentally deleted a project, you can restore it and the associated timestamps here.

Recalculate project totals

It can happen that the final total for a project does not match the sum of the timestamps. You can use this function to recalculate the project total.

Activate/deactivate automation

If you activate automation, the project totals in the database will be automatically recalculated at 11 p.m.

Check and correct database

Due to unforeseeable circumstances, some records in the database may contain duplicate or invalid values. This function finds and removes these records.

Permanently delete deleted records

Here you can free the database from unnecessary ballast by permanently removing records that are no longer needed from the database.

Empty all tables

With the "Empty all tables" button, you can reset the program to its default state.
