Description
Use the Cache page to see cache statistics and clear a specific cache. This page stores the system user data so that future requests for that data can be served faster. The cache holds data that may have been run earlier or that are duplicates of original values.
Access
- Select the Administration menu button, select the Manage button, and then select the Cache submenu link. You must have the necessary security permissions to access the Administration menu button. When you select the Administration menu button, the system opens the main Administration menu, which contains administrative menu buttons, including the Manage menu. To return to the main menu for the system, select the Tasks menu button.
Viewing the Cache
