The total number of shifts in the Status Bar is the total number of shifts that exist in the database. This includes deleted and old shifts. This may be used to indicate the true number of shifts in the database. The total number of shifts will get larger as time progresses as new shifts are regularly added. This means that RosterNet will progressively get slower and there will be a need for some maintenance. Deleting a shift does NOT remove it from the database. A deleted shift is only removed from normal viewing, but may be viewed or removed by selecting Administration, then the View/Remove Records action. Old and unwanted records need to be removed using this action from time to time to maintain performance, after backing up the database first.
