Deleting your old schedules and bookings in the XMS Systems Scheduler and Bookings Module

One of the things getting old and outdated quickly is your scheduler.

If you have an active scheduler or booking systems it is a good idea to periodically look at the old historic entries in your scheduler. It might not be always a good idea to remove old historic entries for various reasons. However if you don’t have any need for historic entries there are no reason why you cant delete them at least once a year.

To remove old Scheduler data, log into your administration section and navigate to

Admin > Dashboard > Manage Site Content > Scheduler / Bookings and click “Calendar Maintenance”

You are presented with a simple page with two options.
