Case Notes Archiving

If you have several years of case notes in RPM, older ones can be archived. Archived case notes will no longer display on the Clients screen but are still available on reports. The steps below outline the archive process.

1. Everyone should be out of RPM other than the person running the archive. It’s a good idea to have a backup before starting. The backup method depends on the type of RPM license you have. To see the type of license you have, open the System Info screen under the RPM Help menu.

2. Open the Archive Case Notes screen under the Utilities, Client menu. This will display the total number of case notes as well as the earliest and latest date for case notes. Select All to archive case notes for all clients or Inactive to archive for only inactive clients.

3. Enter the date to use for archiving in the Archive Case Notes Prior To date. Case notes BEFORE that date will be archived. For example, enter a date two or more years before the current date. The number of case notes to be archived will be displayed.

4. Click Archive to start the process. This may take a few minutes. A message will be displayed when the process is complete.

5. This step only applies for RPM Onsite licenses using an Access database. Open the Tech Support screen under the Help menu at the top right of RPM. Click Optimizer to run the Optimizer. A message will be displayed when the Optimizer is complete.

6. All users can get back into RPM.

7. To view case notes that have been archived, open the Reports screen.

  • In the Case Notes section, select Archived Case Notes By Client.
  • In the Custom section, select Case Notes Archived.
