Hi
There is a discussion at the office at how to manage the central model file and how to do backups. Some like to make in incremental copy of the central file and let all the users make new local copies of the new central file. Then the old central file becomes a backup and all users must make new local files. I like to do backups by just take copy of the central file to a backup folder. Then the users are not forced to make new local files and the central file remains the same.
I notice that it is recommended to recreate the central file every know and then. Does anybody know why? Does it really reduce crashes? By recreate the central file the file size is also reduced. Has anybody noticed any substantial reduction? Does it increase model performance?
And, when you do an audit I see on a blog post that you should make a new central file it's done. Is this important? If I don't, will the audit be reverted?
