Setup (Reference)
The MC Warehouse Client Setup page contains all global settings of the Warehouse Client. It is the reference behind the Setup Wizard – here you also change settings after the fact.
Open: Search (Alt+Q) → MC Warehouse Client Setup.

|---|---|
| Cleanup Scan Log | Deletes scan logs older than the retention period (with confirmation) |
| Cleanup Expired Locks | Removes expired document locks (with confirmation) |
Automate cleanup
Scan logs are cleaned up based on the retention period anyway. The Cleanup Expired Locks action helps when a terminal has crashed and a lock is "stuck".
License Info Box
The setup card additionally shows the license status: current status, maximum number of terminals, currently active terminals, and the license/demo period. Details and actions: Licensing & Modules.
